Description

Iran has been at the center of the action for over 2500 years, but J. Gerlach's Simple History series covers a particularly tumultuous era from 1891-1991. This period saw the end of the nation's monarchy, coups, foreign overthrows, revolutions, and its ascent as the world's first Islamic theocracy. This page turner also gives great insight into the Judeo-Christian West's current war on the Islamic world.

Reviews

Reading the collection of zines in this boxset, one is reminded of a simple truth: despite some well intentions, like Nick Cave bellows: people are no good. And you can put a pretty bow on it and call your war a moral cause, but the underlying truth is most times it's all about greed and ego. This collection of well-articulated summaries shed light on world events that reverberate to this day. - Last Gasp
