Resumen del Editor
In 1947, Daniel Dennett, America’s first master spy in the Middle East, was dispatched to Saudi Arabia to study the route of the proposed Trans-Arabian Pipeline. It would be his last assignment. On the way, a plane carrying him to Ethiopia went down, killing everyone on board. Today, Dennett is recognized by the CIA as a “fallen star” and is an important figure in US intelligence history. Yet the true story behind his death remains clouded in secrecy.
In The Crash of Flight 3804, investigative journalist Charlotte Dennett digs into her father’s counterintelligence work, which pitted him against America’s wartime allies - the British, the French, and the Russians - in a covert battle for geopolitical and economic influence in the Middle East. Through vivid storytelling, extensive research, and deep analysis of region-defining maps, she reveals how feverish competition among intelligence networks, military, and Big Oil interests have fueled indiscriminate attacks and targeted killings that continue to this day. By introducing the listener to all the major players, the audiobook delivers an irrefutable indictment of these devastating forces and how the brutal violence they incite has shaped the Middle East and birthed an era of endless wars.
Part personal pilgrimage, part detective story, Dennett’s insightful reportage and deft critique examines what happens to international relations when oil wealth hangs in the balance, shining a light on what so many have actually been dying for.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Charlotte Dennett has written an excellent book summarizing the geopolitics of the Middle East historically through to current events.... This is an amazing piece of historical writing.... Students, foreign affairs ‘experts’ and officials should have this work as required reading.” (Jim Miles, Palestine Chronicle)
“What makes the book so compelling is how much deeper and broader she digs than personal memoir.... Equal parts Thomas L. Friedman and Tom Clancy, the book is a remarkable achievement whose personalized insights on geopolitics are both gripping and sobering.” (Seven Days)

This is an ambitious, meticulous examination of how U.S. foreign policy since the 1960s has led to partial or total cover-ups of past domestic criminal acts, including, perhaps, the catastrophe of 9/11. Peter Dale Scott, whose previous books have investigated CIA involvement in southeast Asia, the drug wars, and the Kennedy assassination, here probes how the policies of presidents since Nixon have augmented the tangled bases for the 2001 terrorist attack.

Historia
The Iranian Revolution of 1979 was a defining moment of the modern era. Its success unleashed a wave of Islamist fervor across the Middle East and signaled a sharp decline in the appeal of Western ideologies in the Islamic world. Michael Axworthy takes listeners through the major periods in Iranian history over the last 30 years: the overthrow of the old regime and the creation of the new one; the Iran-Iraq war; the reconstruction era following the war; the reformist wave led by Mohammed Khatami; and the present day, in which reactionaries have re-established control.

With a reporter’s masterly investigative eye and the narrative dexterity of a great historian, Solomon shows how Iran’s nuclear development went unnoticed for years by the international community only to become its top security concern.

In White Malice, Susan Williams unearths the covert operations pursued by the CIA from Ghana to the Congo to the UN in an effort to frustrate and deny Africa’s new generation of nationalist leaders. This dramatically upends the conventional belief that the African nations failed to establish effective, democratic states on their own accord. As the old European powers moved out, the US moved in.

Until his assassination by US drone strike in January 2020, commander Qassem Soleimani was one of the most powerful men in Iran and the military spearhead for Iranian foreign policy, enacting the wishes of the country's Supreme Leader in the region. A widely popular but also feared maverick operator, he helped to establish the Islamic Republic as a major force in the Middle East, with interventions in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen. This was a long way from where he began as a youth, living on the margins in a country ruled by a monarch supported by the United States.

In 1990, soon after the Polish people voted in their first democratic election since the 1930s, the young Polish government sent a veteran spy, who’d battled the West for decades, to rescue six American officers trapped in Baghdad.

In 1965, the US government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians. This was one of the most important turning points of the 20th century, eliminating the largest communist party outside China and the Soviet Union and inspiring copycat terror programs in faraway countries like Brazil and Chile. But these events remain widely overlooked, precisely because the CIA's secret interventions were so successful.

Since 1945, the US has justified numerous wars, interventions, and military build-ups based on the pretext of the Russian Red Menace, even after the Soviet Union collapsed at the end of 1991 and Russia stopped being Red. In fact, the two biggest post-war American conflicts, the Korean and Vietnam wars, were not, as has been frequently claimed, about stopping Soviet aggression or even influence. And now the specter of a Russian Menace has been raised again in the wake of Donald Trump's victory.

In his stunning conclusion, Johnson suggests that the crisis of a financial breakdown could ultimately prove to be the only path to a renewed nation.

At the end of World War II, the United States was considered the victor over tyranny and a champion of freedom. But it was clear—to some—that the Soviet Union was already seeking to expand and foment revolution around the world, and the American government’s strategy in response relied on the secret efforts of a newly formed CIA. Chronicling their fascinating lives, Scott Anderson follows the exploits of four spies. Despite their ambitions, time and again their efforts went awry, thwarted by ham-fisted politicking and ideological rigidity at the highest levels of the government.

Drawing on a wealth of untapped archival materials and the reports of generations of family members - mayors, judges, scholars, diplomats, and journalists - The Hundred Years' War on Palestine upends accepted interpretations of the conflict, which tend, at best, to describe a tragic clash between two peoples with claims to the same territory. Instead, Khalidi traces a hundred years of colonial war on the Palestinians, waged first by the Zionist movement and then Israel, but backed by Britain and the United States, the great powers of the age.

A People's History In Our Time
Among the many books about US role in Middle East wars that have spanned my lifetime, this book by Dennett shines with clarity, simplicity, and love for humanity. It is straightforward truth-telling wrapped in compassion. Unlike histories of this period that have left me feeling sad and hopeless, Dennett 's book carries an inspiring message that peace is possible and the pursuit of truth is the path to freedom.

Outstanding and eye opening book
Dennett has crafted an amazing story that peels back the layers of history and global intrigue behind the endless conflicts of the Middle East. By weaving a touching personal journey for answers to her fathers mysterious death in post-war Ethiopia, Dennett uncovers the massive, decades long struggle for energy supremacy among the worlds powerful capitalists and nations-states.
A must read for anyone with the slightest bit of curiosity regarding the tumultuous Middle East and the western powers near-constant involvement in these ongoing conflicts. For anyone who wonders “why are we there- again?” this book gives the sobering answers.
I believe this would make an incredible mini-series if any producer was brave enough to do it. A guaranteed hit for sure.

Best read on this topic
The author has gone through a tremendous amount of research that took years in order for her to collect so much information on the secret history and politics of pipelines. I originally come from Lebanon and I’m so impressed by the accuracy of her discerption of the Middle East & muslim world. Extremely well done thank you, Charlotte Dennett.

Expected a serious book especially with that title
I didn’t know if this was a biography or a book about geopolitics and pipelines. Author spends too much time about herself and father. A lot of time spent on personal feelings of virtue and self righteousness. Author even discussing her honesty since childhood. Unnecessary. Also includes highly partisan political jabs as well. Again, unnecessary.
I was expecting to hear and learn more about geopolitics and finance side of pipelines(some inside baseball) but the author came short. Not a serious book.
