A myth-busting insider's account of the Iranian Revolution of 1979 that destroyed US influence in the country and transformed the politics of the Middle East and the world.

James Buchan was studying in Iran in the 1970s when the turmoil that culminated in the revolution began. Fluent in Persian, he draws on a wealth of Iranian records, memoirs, diaries and newspaper reports and his own knowledge and experience to provide the first comprehensive history of that tumultuous time.

Buchan explores the roots of the revolution in the Shah's regime and and explains how, even as the Iranian economy flourished and the country asserted its new power, beneath the surface deep anxieties were coming to a head. He shows how Ayatollah Khomeini, at first just one actor in the anti-Shah movement, by force of will came to dominate it.

Buchan recounts the see-saw violence and passions that gripped the country and reached fever pitch when Khomeini returned from exile in February, 1979, launching a reign of terror that demolished opposition to his rule. He shows how the chaos in Iran provoked a re-alignment of forces in the Middle East, from the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan to the rise of Saddam Hussein's Iraq and the development of Al-Qaida. A dramatic, scene-by-scene account with rich characterizations of the leading players as well as of the ordinary Iranians who were swept into the maelstrom, Days of God is history-writing at its vivid best.
