About This Book

A firsthand account documents the 1894 massacre of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, compiling certified testimony, eyewitness reports, and illustrative material to expose systematic abuses by local forces and administrative failure. It provides geographic, historical, and social background on the region and its peoples; details taxation, Kurdish plunder, and prior episodes of communal violence; analyzes the role of religious and political structures and the unmet promises of international treaties; and assesses diplomatic responses and American involvement. Appendices address consular reporting, press censorship, bibliography, and supporting illustrations.
