Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. 1st Edition. Ex-library with the usual library markings (if not for the library markings this copy would be graded in fine condition); overall a nice used copy! Red boards with embossed red lettering on the spine. 224 historical and informative pages nicely enhanced by black and white photographs and illustrations! "At a time when most Westerners fled the carnage in Iran, David Burnett was one of the few to stay and document the breathtakingly sudden fall of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi in December 1978, and the chaotic political maneuvering that would culminate in the triumph of the Ayatollahs and the birth of the Islamic Republic. 44 Days re-creates a coup that led to our long hostage crisis, President Jimmy Carter's political demise, and an enmity still blazing after thirty years. Burnett's vivid images of the dizzying events and emotions of that turbulent time illustrate his narrative of the monarchy's destruction, the last-ditch efforts to salvage a secular government, and the establishment of a hard-line regime dominated by religious leaders and the rule of Islamic law. Accompanying Burnett's account is a penetrating foreword by commentator Christiane Amanpour, herself Iranian-born, as well as an essay by celebrated New York Times reporter John Kifner, who shares his own experience of revolution in Iran and reflects upon its decades-long aftermath. Filled with powerful insights into the revolution and its pertinence today, this book is for history and current affairs buffs, photography lovers, and everyone interested in the clash of Islamic fundamentalism and the West.".

Oversized Hardcover. Condizione: Good. It begins like a Graham Greene novel, Christmas 1978, with a correspondent aboard a plane landing in an ominously empty city ripped by sudden violence. One one side, Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the West-leaning but authoritarian and unpopular leader of Iran; on the other, a coalition of angry oposition interests from secular leftists to ultra conservative mullahs, all hunted by SAVAK, the feared and hated secret police. The shah's reperssive policies are common knowledge, but his regime's instablity and the swiftness of his ecplipse will take the world by suprise, as all scatter to safety. This is legendary photojournalist David Burnett's view. Codice articolo 1868843
