Our history with Iran is deeper than the headlines.

Did you know that some of Iran’s most prestigious schools and hospitals were founded by Presbyterian missionaries? Before the geopolitics of today, there was a century-long legacy of service, education, and mutual respect.

In America and Iran, John Ghazvinian gives a compelling history including the story of the Presbyterians in Iran—from the founding of Alborz College to the sacrifice of Howard Baskerville, a Presbyterian teacher who died for Iranian democracy.

In a time of conflict and tension, this book offers a necessary reminder of our shared humanity and the deep roots of our faith’s commitment to the Iranian people. It is an essential read for any church member seeking to understand the situation we are in today through the lens of our own history.
