Caine lends Fowler the weariness and wariness of an old lion reminding itself how to roar, and the pathos of a lover driven to humiliate his mistress and himself.

Here, finally, is a chance to explore the social and cultural setting that produced not only Saddam, but also one of the Arab world?s greatest heroes, Salahuddin - or, as the Crusaders knew him, Saladin.
