Book Synopsis The Iranian Military in Revolution and War (RLE Iran D) by : Sepehr Zabir
Book excerpt: This book is a fascinating critical examination of the characteristics and development of the armed forces in Iran, their role under the Shah and their re-creation in the war against Iraq as the fighting forces of Islam. The author examines the contradictory accounts, including the ShahOCOs own Answer to History, as well as newly available accounts by highly placed ex-officials, and interviews with exiled army officers.a The book concludes with an analysis of the potential role of the armed forces in a succession crisis. a"
