Ebook: Musaddiq, Iranian Nationalism, and Oil

Drawing on a wide range of evidence, this book analyses the origins of the Musaddiq movement, the nationalisation of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company in 1951, the American and British intervention in 1953 that led to Musaddiq's political demise, and the part played by the Shah and the consortium of oil companies that replaced the British oil monopoly in 1954.
