Reader comment on item: Too Rich: The High Life and Tragic Death of King Farouk

Submitted by Karim El Shishinz (Switzerland), Aug 23, 2011 at 09:22

In page 107 in the Book "Too Rich", it is stated that the Islamic calendar started counting since the death of the prophet. This information is not correct, the calendar starts counting since the prophet left Mecca to Medina.

However, the book is a great piece of art ! One can live in it and enjoy the life in Egypt in the past days.
