'The real Greenmantle! This story of the German attempt to use Afghanistan as a launching pad for a religious war against the British in India is riveting' - Antony Wynn, author of Persia in the Great Game 'A unique and fascinating story' General Sir David Richards, from the foreword to this book 'A beautifully conceived work that reads like a historical thriller but with all the implications of relevance today.' Ahmed Rashid, author of Taliban "Jules Stewart, a freelance journalist, has uncovered the amazing details of one of the great might-have-beens of history and written an exciting story. It would make a wonderful and spectacular adventure film. Steven Spielberg take note." - Lawrence James, The Times
