The Iranians

A narrative history of Iran and the culture that shaped it, written by a CNN reporter who served as a commentator during the Gulf War. Mackey shows how the Iranian nation developed as an amalgamation of Persian culture and the Islamic religion, and portrays the conflicts that arose when the Shahs attempted to secularize the nation along the model of Turkey.
