A new history of the long-overlooked WWII theater in Iran and Iraq,
its unrecognized significance, and its impact on local society and
politics This dynamic history is the first to construct a total
picture of the experience and impact of World War II in Iran and
Iraq. Contending that these two countries were more important to
the Allied forces' war operations than has ever been acknowledged,
historian Ashley Jackson investigates the grand strategy of the
Allies and their operations in the region and the continuing legacy
of Western intervention in the Middle East. Iran and Iraq served as
the first WWII theater in which the U.S., the U.K., and the
U.S.S.R. fought alongside each other. Jackson charts the intense
Allied military activity in Iran and Iraq and reveals how deeply
the war impacted common people's lives. He also provides
revelations about the true nature of Anglo-American relations in
the region, the beginnings of the Cold War, and the continuing
corrosive legacy of Western influence in these lands.
