This compelling historical account chronicles the 1953 American-orchestrated coup in Iran, a pivotal event that dramatically reshaped the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East. Stephen Kinzer uncovers the intricate details of how the CIA engineered the overthrow of Iran's democratically elected Prime Minister Mohammad Mossadegh, reinstating the Shah and setting the stage for decades of regional instability. The narrative presents a compelling argument, illustrating how this intervention directly contributed to the rise of anti-American sentiment and the subsequent emergence of extremist movements. This incisive work details the long-term consequences of foreign intervention, offering a critical perspective on the origins of contemporary Middle Eastern conflicts as presented in All The Shah's Men: An American Coup And The Roots Of Middle East Terror.
