| Publisher Description: The Collapse of Monarchy in Afghanistan, written in the Persian language, is a narrative of the account of events that led to the collapse of King Zahir Shah's monarchy in Afghanistan in 1973. What makes this book worthy of reading is the fact that it is a first-hand account written by a key military figure who played an instrumental role in the Coup'd etat that led to the formation of the first republic in Afghanistan under president Daud. The author, Mr. Abdul Hamid Muhtat was appointed as minister of telecommunication after the Coup and subsequently held key high ranking positions under different Afghan administrations, such as ambassador, deputy prime minister and vice president, until 1992. By reading this book, the readers will get acquainted with main figures, personalities, episodes and circumstances that led to the demise of 226-year-old Afghan monarchy. This book is the first in a series of three books written by the same author. All the books are available from Amazon.com and other online stores. |
