Iran and the CIA: The Fall of Mosaddeq Revisited

By Darioush Bayandor, Markos Zachariadis, Susan V. Scott

In the early 1950s, frail septuagenarian prime minister of Iran, Doctor Mohammad Mosaddeq, shook the world - challenging Britain by nationalizing Iran's British-run oil industries. In August 1953 he was overthrown. Revisiting these events with astonishing new evidence, this book challenges the conventionally-held theory of foul play by the CIA.
