Iran at War - Maziar Behrooz - Bog

Qajar history has gone through much revision and distortion during the post-Qajar period. Some of the revisions are valid observations; however, distortions remain which need to be addressed to set the record straight. As a study of early Qajar history, this book is an attempt to revisit early nineteenth century Qajar Iran, address the historical fallacies, and create a new narrative and framework for better understanding this crucial period of Iran's history. The late eighteenth and early nineteenth century was one of reunification of Iran under the Qajar and at the same time encounter with the modern European world through aggressive imperialism.
