This book needs more color plates. She makes fleeting references to mosque roofs covered by tulips, with no pictures or explanations!

I just finished the Dutch tulipmania chapter, which was better than the rest of the book. Still felt the writing lacked focus.

I find myself with this book. The author never focuses; at times it feels like lists of tulip prices. She needs to focus!

There were parties of the sultan's where tortoises would roam with candles on their backs! The tulip market is still behind the New Mosque.
