August 1941: The Anglo-Russian Occupation of Iran and Change of Shahs
ISBN: 9780761859406 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 436 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

ISBN: 9780761867388 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 748 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Occupied Iran in World War II became the most important supply route to Russia and source of fuel to the Allies. Having pledged to meet Iran's "minimum needs," the Allies commandeered the means of transport, seized food and fuel, severely restricted imports, forced Iran to print money, brought Polish refugees from Russia, and initially did little to contain the chaos and insecurity. The resulting famine and typhus epidemic of 1942-43 had claimed 4 million lives amounting to a quarter of the population. This was in addition to the 8-10 million lost in the Great Famine of 1917-19. Iran's 1944...
