- Summary
- The text reveals the concerns of the moment as well as the author's bias for the Armenians (against the Ottoman Turks) based on their religious faith. The outcome of the partition of Turkey, the makeup of the world and the League of Nations, and the consequences for the losers of World War I were up in the air at the time of publication. Papazian credits Armenians' resistance to the Ottomans as equal to Belgium's contribution for winning WWI. Papazian's purpose in publishing this book was to provide a longer history of Armenians beyond the contemporary suffering by which most Americans knew them, but many pages are devoted to recent history. The author's goal is to mobilize support for an independent Armenian state. The last chapter is a call for Christian nations to gratify Armenia's suffering with its own nation.
