Excellent read and great account of history
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Edward Alexander does a great job to present a historical account of the events of the Armenian genocide at the hands of the Young Turks in 1915. The book is a great read because detailed historical research is presented in a form of a thriller of one of the most famous assassinations and subsequent trials of modern history. Let me also point out that Alexander's account represents a very objective view of history, praising numerous Turkish officials (like the governor of Der Zor, and 50 Turkish parliamentarians) and individuals who tried to protect the Armenians and refused to carry out orders of Talaat and Enver. As for the reader below, don't mind him. The entire Turkish nation still thinks that the best way of facing a black page of their history is trying to sweep it under the rug. My advice to him is to bow his head to the memory of the victims, ask for forgiveness and reconciliation so that Armenians and Turks can once again be friends.
His facts are accurate!

The government of Turkey goes to great lengths to deny the twentieth century's First Genocide. Ed Alexender relied on the historical archives of at least several countries , mainly Germany and USA's National Archives.Being a retired foreign service officer, he knows the value of facts and he documents his facts quite well!When it comes to presenting facts, I believe the reviewer from Turkey is presenting his goverments misguided policy and nothing else. His reviews are always negative when it deals with the Armenian Genocide.I recommend this book highly!!
International Justice
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is a worthy read for students, scholars, and laymen interested in the complex and ofthen paradoxical arena of international justice. Written in the form of a thriller that could rival LeCarre ,Angler, and Ludlum. This book delves deep into the psyche of the victims of genocide in a masterful tribute to the human spirit to endure adversity and mete out justice.
