daguerreotypes finished! this was a large chunk of the book and interesting in the sense that the entire thing is different notes and photos not shown, but described in its entirety and accompanied by sardonic explorations of the implications of each action discussed. it’s very interesting, going back (briefly) to the 6th century, and now it’s time for the epilogue!!!

the Shah steps his game up; Mossadegh is killed; Ayatollah Komeini is arrested following his criticism of the Shah; a slaughter follows his detainment; brutality of the Savak; distrust caused by Savak’s inhumane procedures

wow, lots of information! i’ve never read anything that’s just descriptions of photos and other documents, but it helps attribute to its unbiased character.
