• American Hostages in Iran👍 Recommends

  …book recommendations for understanding historical u.s. iran crises

  “Another one I would recommend is an even older book that was done of the hostage crisis, edited by Warren Christopher, who, of course, served in many senior positions, and really just talked through all of the diplomats, the military officials, and the bankers, who played a really important role in helping end what was also a very protracted crisis that diminished the United States in many respects in the world. It's called American Hostages in Iran, The Conduct of a Crisis.”

  …book recommendations for understanding iran governance and future prospects

  “And the third book I'd recommend by an Iranian author, Iranian academic, Brunau Retired, Misog Parsa, Democracy in Iran, Why It Failed, and How It Might Succeed, and I hope that it will in the long term.”

  The Twilight War👍 Recommends

  …book recommendations for understanding u.s. iran history and conflict

  “I would recommend a couple of books outside of the norm, perhaps. I know you've had a lot of folks talking about Iran lately, and they all mentioned some of the great classics in the field, but especially because we're talking about the U.S.-Iran relationship, I wanted to recommend one, The Twilight War by David Crist. The subtitle is The Secret History of America's 30-Year Conflict with Iran, so it's obviously a little bit outdated, but David Crist is a Pentagon historian, and he writes about the Tanker War period, as well as other skirmishes between the United States and Iran.”
