On 16 January 1979, with riots raging around him, the Shah flew out of Teheran for the last time, a sick and disillusioned man. For the rest of his life he was to be shunted from country to country in search of a refuge, an international pariah shunned by the world leaders who had previously fawned upon him.; William Shawcross chronicles the bizarre and tragic process of the Shah from exile to death. He also wrote "Sideshow: Kissinger, Nixon and the Destruction of Cambodia" and "The Quality of Mercy: Cambodia, Holocaust and Modern Conscience".
