Abstract
Iran-Iraq War is one of the bloodiest, longest and, with respect to consequences, the most important battles which occurred in the Middle East in the 20th century. The confrontation of two regional powers lasted eight years and caused devastating effects on these two states and their people. Efraim Karsh’s book offers an ideal explanation for those who want to get information about this war. It has chronological narration and it’s basically composed of nine chapters. In this review, every chapter is studied separately and eventually a general examination is made.
