More about the book
Rasselas is a tale of the royal princes of Abyssinia, who were condemned to live on the prison-mountain of Wehni until they died or the order of succession called them to the throne. How much of this was truth and how much legend? The predicament of the prisoners had been even more melodramatic than previously surmised. An incredible archaeological discovery was a medieval church of the finest style ever recorded.
