Summary: An excellent book on the first Genocide of the 20th century
Comment: This is an excellent book to read if you want to learn about the true atrocities of the first genocide of the 20th century. This book is not for the feint-hearted but I recommend it highly as it is very accurate and comes from a very reputable source who was directly involved with the Turkish government and the Armenians during the early 20th century.

Keep in mind the following when you read the other reviews posted here:

"The French National Assembly has formally recognised as genocide the slaughter of more than a million Armenians living in the Ottoman empire between 1915 and 1917."

Additional facts/quotes:

Adolf Hitler

While persuading his associates that a Jewish holocaust would be tolerated by the west stated...
"Who, after all, speaks today of the annihilation of the Armenians?"

Yossi Beilin

Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister. April 27, 1994 on the floor of the Knesset in response to a TV interview of the Turkish Ambassador
"It was not war. It was most certainly massacre and genocide, something the world must remember... We will always reject any attempt to erase its record, even for some political advantage."

Gerald Ford

Addressing the US House of Representatives.
"Mr. Speaker, with mixed emotions we mark the 50th anniversary of the Turkish genocide of the Armenian people. In taking notice of the shocking events in 1915, we observe this anniversary with sorrow in recalling the massacres of Armenians and with pride in saluting those brave patriots who survived to fight on the side of freedom during World War I."
-- Congressional Record, pg. 8890

Additional books I recommend:
Peter Balakian's "The Burning Tigris" and "Black Dog of Fate"

All over the world for many centuries, religious and ethnic intolerance have caused much pain and death to humanity. We should never forgive or forget any holocaust or genocide, no matter how large or how small, and the world's leaders and governments should do everything and anything in their power to recognize and prevent such atrocities in the future.

Summary: An Unforgettable, Astonishing Book!!
Comment: A true classic book about the 1915 Armenian Genocide and other crises in the Turkish region. Ambassador Morgenthau represented America with courage, dignity, and compassion. What a unique man and a heroic story. This book is guaranteed to touch your heart, inspire your faith, and encourage you that even in the most desperate, horrific situations there is still hope and the opportunities to show love and mercy are more pronounced when all hell breaks loose. An unforgettable and timely book!
