Safdar Nensey, the author, a petroleum engineer by profession, has worked in Pakistan and the Middle East for more than 36 years in both the oil and gas exploration and the production
sector.

He collects a range of items, from postcards to rare manuscripts and rare and ancient coins. Besides piecing together history through his hobby of collecting antiques, he enjoys reading, particularly related to the history of the Indian sub-continent and the Holy Land.
