About this book
This book is a tale of loss: the loss of Iran as America's main ally and agent in the Middle East and the downfall of the short-lived Pahlavi monarchy and America's inability and unwillingness to prevent its demise. Khomeini's triumph altered America's perception of Islam and fundamentally changed its relationship with Iran.

“Guerrero’s work is written well and documented thoroughly. The resources accessed are valuable in and of themselves. It is a welcome work to the political history of American-Iranian interaction.” (Philip O Hopkins, Iran and the Caucasus, Vol. 21 (1), 2017)
