Impact of Political Events on the Postal History of Persia In the Late 19th and Early 20th Centuries

IPSC has published the first volume of the monumental work, "Impact of Political Events on the Postal History of Persia In the Late 19th and Early 20th Centuries", by Dr. Goodarzi.

In the tumultuous backdrop of late 19th and early 20th-century Persia, a landscape marred by rebellions, occupations, and political upheaval, Dr. Goodarzi unfolds a narrative deeply rooted in the intricate tapestry of historical events.
Leveraging his extensive scientific research background, Dr. Goodarzi dedicated 35 years to meticulous data gathering, collaborating with distinguished philatelists and collections. Rather than a mere systematic cataloging of stamps, this book delves into the historical context that shaped Persian philately during a tumultuous era.
The author focuses on unraveling the impact of political turmoil on the usage of a myriad of military and civilian censorship markings. Dr. Goodarzi's unique perspective invites readers to comprehend the imperative behind the introduction and varied use of these markings at different junctures in Persian history.

The book can be purchased through Amazon. You can search for the title or the author's full name to find it on other Amazon marketplaces. This first volume is almost 400 pages, and the amount of research and information is incredible.

The 2nd volume will be available in early 2024. Dr. Goodarzi is also working on two more volumes for this work. Mr. Robert Jack, the editor of the IPSC bulletin, did a fantastic job editing and organizing the book.
