More than forty years after his death, Laszlo Almasy's name would become famous in Anthony Minghella's film The English Patient. But who was he really? Was he a spy? And if so for whom - the Allies or the Germans? So many questions were unanswered. John Bierman's wide ranging investigation of Almasy's life and career reveals an even more complex and enigmatic figure than Hollywood allowed. It is little known that Almasy was actually one of the first desert explorers and he made many important discoveries. John Bierman brings to life the 'real' Almasy, the complex and intriguing personality who the Bedouins called 'The Father of the Dunes.'
