Cover of Adam Garfinkle & Daniel Pipes: Friendly Tyrants (PDF)

All were allied to the United States; all defied democratic and liberal norms; and all three fell in a blaze, creating problems for the United States. These three cases – and another eighteen more – are the subject of Friendly Tyrants, the first study ever to survey the contentious, persistent problem of U.S. government relations with pro-American authoritarian rulers.
