First Edition
1st ed. thus hardback in decorated cloth As New octavo lxiii + 423pp., frontis., b/w pls., appends., index, Shuster served as treasurer general to the government of the Persian Empire in 1911. In 1910, the Persian government asked U.S. president William Howard Taft for technical assistance in reorganising its financial system. Taft chose William Morgan Shuster (1877 1960) to head a mission of American experts to Tehran. Shuster clashed repeatedly with Russian and British officials, until his mission was forced to withdraw in early 1912. This is an account of his experiences. [from Wikipedia].

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Used hardcover book in VERY GOOD+ condition. Red cloth-covered boards with gilt lettering within rectangular black background on front cover and spine. No dust jacket. Minimal rubbing to edges and corners. Sewn binding is tight and clean throughout. Light foxing on top edge. Historic b/w photographs throughout book. Size: approx. 6? x 8.5? x 1.5?. About the book: In 1911, an ambitious American was invited by a budding Iranian democracy to bring financial stability to the country. He went with the blessing of the British and Russian governments, both of which enjoyed a wide sphere of influence in the region. However, no one expected him to succeed so quickly in making Iran into a credible democracy and he was ousted by the actions of the Russian and British governments. After he was forced to return to the US, Shuster wrote a book revealing the true motives of the superpowers of the time and how the region's course of history was forever altered. Strangling of Persia offers keen insights into the timeless methods used by powerful nations to achieve their own ends. More than 85 years after its' first publication, it remains a powerful indictment of a short-sighted policy that crushed a fragile but promising democracy. Note: This book was orginally published in 1912 by The Century Company.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Third Impression. 378 pages plus advertisements. Index, 85 illustrations, map and appendicies. Tissue-protected frontis of author. Do you think Western malevolent intervention in the Middle East (i.e. George W. Bush in Iraq) is only a recent phenomenon? Guess again. "Only the pen of a Macaulay or the brush of a Verestchagin could adequately portray the rapidly shifting scenes attending the downfall of this ancient nation - scenes in which two powerful and presumably enlightened Christian countries played fast and loose with truth, honour, decency, and law; one, at least, hesitating not even at the most barborous cruelties to accomplish its political designs and to put Persia beyond hope of self-regeneration." - from Foreward. Rubber stamp upon copyright page suggests this copy may have once belonged to the British Public Service. Only other mark is library call letter written upon spine. Average wear. Binding a little fragile but still serviceable. Three yellow drops stain front board. Author penned this work after being sacked from the post of Treasurer-general of Persia in January 1912. Fascinating history.
