About This Book

A historical and polemical account tracing the region's early Christianization and long pattern of invasions and persecutions, surveying successive conquests and sectarian violence, the rise of Islam and its imperial expansions, medieval crusading and nomadic incursions, and later Ottoman-era atrocities against Armenian communities. It compiles eyewitness reports, contemporary political commentary, and moral appeals to foreign powers while documenting famine, massacres, and displacement. The authors analyze geopolitical interests shaping international responses, argue for urgent humanitarian relief, and lay out chronological chapters that combine historical narrative, eyewitness testimony, and political critique to rally sympathy and diplomatic pressure for protection and aid.
