Description for The Shah's Last Ride
Paperback. Good copy with some shelf wear
On 16 January 1979, with riots raging around him, the Shah flew out of Teheran for the last time, a sick and disillusioned man. For the rest of his life he was to be shunted from country to country in search of a refuge, an international pariah shunned by the world leaders who had previously fawned upon him. William Shawcross chronicles the bizarre and tragic process of the Shah from exile to death. He also wrote "Sideshow: Kissinger, Nixon and the Destruction of Cambodia" and "The Quality of Mercy: Cambodia, Holocaust and Modern Conscience".
