The Armenian Genocide

Library Binding (Greenhaven Pr Jan. 15, 2018)
The systematic extermination of about 1.5 million Armenians by the Ottoman government during and after WWI inspired the formulation of a new term that would come to haunt the modern civilized worldgenocide. It was a harbinger of other genocides that would deeply scar and stain the twentieth century. To this day, Turkey denies the genocide, instead claiming that the victims died of starvation or the violence of isolated gangs or the unintended effects of legitimate deportation. These ongoing denials and evasions have generated enormous debate, criticism, and controversywithin and without Turkeyall of which is laid out here for readers to sift through and evaluate and within which they may pursue and locate the truth.
