Marjane Satrapi's awesome autobiographical comic "Persepolis" [1] also addresses this as the setup to the chain of events that would lead to Iran's current theocracy.

I recommend this comic as well as the movie based on it.

Worth noting that Satrapi's family were part of the US supported-side and so the story might be slightly slanted to one side, covering more the time period where a conservative religious group cane in to power as a backlash.
