Review
'An outstanding piece of research which offers an important and original perspective on the history of US-Iranian relations' Professor John Dumbrell, University of Leicester

Product Description

This is a penetrating critique of international relations theory within the historical framework of US-Iranian relations from the early reign of the Shah to the revolution under the Ayatollah Khomeini, with particular emphasis on the final years during the Carter administration. This thorough examination provides the first in-depth look at US documents seized from the American Embassy by revolutionary students during the infamous hostage crisis.
