Summary: A Touching and Important Autobiography
Comment: A revealing personal account of an important public figure of our time. This book provides an intimate look inside the world of pre-revolutionary Iran, as well as an emotional and poignant narrative of the post-revolutionary life of the Iranian royal family. For Iran scholars and enthusiasts, as well as for aficionados of biographies, this is a must-read. It provides personal details about the life of the royal family (including their experience of the revolution, relationships with various world leaders pre- and post-revolution, the Shah's illness, as well as the politics behind its mismanagement) which many people are unaware of.
It is also a touching autobiography of a public figure who has maintained incredible grace and dignity despite very difficult circumstances.
Many books have been written about people's experiences of the Iranian revolution, by members of the Shah's regime as well as by its opponents. How can you miss reading this one?

Summary: An Enduring Love
Comment: After reading few chapter of this valuable book I remember what we as a nation have lost, they are too expensive to mention. I can list just few, the first Human right was wrote in Iran or Persia and died after HIS Majesty and Empress Farah left their home land. When Shahin left Iran's air space, Freedom, world wide Reputation, Prosperity, Happiness, Healthy society and many more left Iran as well.

Empress Farah is a true and unique Queen who her hand has touched so many lives regardless if they were coming from a small village some where in the middle of desert or newly grads from western countries. Her Majesty always welcomes them.

She will be our Queen as long as we are alive, Shah's memory will be in our heart as a Crowned Father the one who loved his country and nation so much, if still some folks believe he was a dictator then, today the people of Iran knows what is the meaning of dictatorship, they have no rights, even to the life or future of their own children.

Summary: A heroic account
Comment: This heroic work by the wife of the Shah is an epitome to the days of Iran under Pahlavi rule. The young bride of the Shah was given a small coin and miniature Koran when they married. She goes on to tell a riveting tale of her experiences both inside and outside of her life in Iran. From excellent discussions on the Shah's reforms, including the Queens own work to help children and women as well as in education. Lucid memories recall the many meetings with heads of state and notables. Of extraordinary interest is the descriptions of the Shah's wanderings after he abdicated, from Cairo to Panama among other places.

This wonderful book is a must read for anyone interesting about the Truth behind the 'revolution' in Iran. She exposes what has happened to women's rights and the economy of Iran under the Ayatollahs and she explains how the revolution betrayed the very people it was supposed to help. In the end this book is an impassioned plea for the soul of the Iranian people and the Iranian nation.
