Customer Reviews
This ones a keeper !
This ones a keeper !
i found it not only a great read, the audio and video clips were much better than i expected considering some recordings go back to the 1980’s, they’re very very clear.
Richard’s gem buying trip was insightful - he clearly knows his trade - Marco Polo & rare gems. It really drew me in. & OMG the interview with the President of the Headhunter tribe - Priceless.
All the tribal people pictures looked outstanding on my iPad.
This quote stood out for me:
"I want to thank all of you who made this exhibition possible,
and particularly, Mr. Richard K. Diran
for bringing beauty into my life at an unexpected time".
Daw Aung San Suu Kyi
bringing beauty into my life at an unexpected time - kinda sums up this book well !
