"A riveting read of intrigue that twists the alliances of nations and with results that still impact the modern world, Our Man in Tehran is an excellent look at the intriguing history that doesn't get enough attention." --The Midwest Book Review
"Historian Robert Wright has written a tight summary of the Iran hostage crisis." --Dallas Morning News
"Illuminating...[Wright] has stepped into the breach in retelling a much-told story, but with convolutions not previously exposed." --Americandiplomacy.org
"In this fascinating account of spycraft and compassion...Wright sketches the historic grievances that lay at the heart of the embassy takeover and dispels lingering myths...crafting an absorbing story of genuine heroism and suspense."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"When narrative nonfiction reads like the plot of an espionage movie, readers can't help but be drawn in and held fast, as is the case here. This title will appeal to those interested in American history and international affairs, as well as to the reader who enjoys a high-risk spy yarn. Especially timely during current world tensions between nations whose mutual hostilities could yield an outcome similar to the true tale told here."--Library Journal (starred review) "Wright crafts an informative narrative of Taylor's formal protests of the egregious violation of international diplomacy that the embassy invasion represented and his surreptitious succor to the Americans."--Booklist "[A] thrilling account of the 1979 Iranian hostage crisis that focuses on the little-known role of Canadian diplomats in protecting Americans . . . A well-constructed history of a remarkable story, the repercussions of which are still felt today." --Kirkus Reviews„Über diesen Titel“ kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.
