Notes: "Sasha lived in Iran from 1935 to 1956, a time of great upheaval and transition. WWII's onset brought Allied troops who marched on Iran and occupied the country. The Iranian experiment with democracy ended with the arrest of Dr. Mossadegh, the duly elected Iranian prime minister. After that the Shah became an undisputed autocratic ruler of Iran"--Page 4 of cover.
