Zohab The Hostage V2 is a historical novel written by James Justinian Morier and published in 1832. The book is a continuation of the first volume of the same name and follows the story of Zohab, a young Persian prince who is taken hostage by the British during the Anglo-Persian War of 1808-1809. In this second volume, Zohab is still held captive in England, where he is exposed to the customs and culture of the British people. He becomes fascinated with their way of life and begins to question his own beliefs and values. Meanwhile, back in Persia, his family is struggling to maintain their power and influence in the face of political upheaval and rebellion. As Zohab’s captivity drags on, he becomes increasingly restless and desperate to return to his homeland. He forms a plan to escape from his captors and make his way back to Persia, but the journey is fraught with danger and uncertainty. Along the way, he encounters a variety of characters, both friend and foe, who shape his understanding of the world and his place in it. Zohab The Hostage V2 is a gripping tale of adventure, self-discovery, and political intrigue set against the backdrop of a fascinating historical period. Morier’s vivid descriptions of Persian and British culture, as well as his nuanced portrayal of the characters, make this a must-read for fans of historical fiction.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
