About This Book
An Armenian author combines personal testimony, documentary extracts, and contemporary diplomatic reports to chronicle large-scale persecution during the war, including disarmament, massacres, deportations, forced conversions, enslavement of women, and mass deaths on forced marches. The account cites official inquiries and eyewitness testimony to attribute responsibility to Ottoman authorities and their collaborators, gives estimates of human losses, and issues a direct appeal to Britain and the forthcoming peace conference for protection, justice, and reparations for survivors.
