Explores the Anglo-American tensions over the control of oil in Iraq and Persia after WWI and the impact of American Vice-Consul Robert Imbrie's murder. Using evidence from US State Department documents, this work argues that Imbrie was the victim of a conspiracy aimed at consolidating British power in the region.
