religious revolutionaries seized control of Iran
and the Shah left the country, Imperial Iranian Air Force Brigadier General Houshang Filsouf was on a mission
to the United States. His British wife and children were behind in Iran
- a Westernized family left to fend for themselves amid a society besieged by
arrests, executions and hatred. Filsouf, a military elite with
feet firmly planted in both the Eastern and Western worlds, tells of the danger
his family faced, their remarkable escape, and the faith that kept them
alive. This is a story of destiny, of
the unexpected love between a young Iranian Air Force officer and a charming
young woman from England. It is a story of faith in God, of a life cast
among the rippling currents of hope and despair during a period of national and
international upheaval. This is the
story of Houshang Filsouf,
and the waves of destiny that taught him to believe in miracles.view less
