Summary: This book made me sick! Read Marline Howe instead
Comment: I have read extensively on Turkey and this one has
been the most disappointing of all.
I completely disagree with other reviewers that the
authors know, understand and love the Turkish and their
land. There were glaring mistakes, and a very
superficial understanding of the Turkish culture.
For those who want to have an understanding of the
political scene in Turkey I would read Marline Howe's
Turkey. She is an American writer who delivers her
subject fairly, and evenly.
I can't recommend Stephen Kinzer's Crescent
and Star as it is full of redundancy. To understand
Ataturk and his impact on Turkey, the book would have
to be Andrew MAngo's Ataturk.

Summary: As if 1.5 million has NOT been proved...
Comment: Besides the fact that this is your average 'how to offend nationalist Turks as little as possible while slipping in the truth', it again dismisses and minimizes the main facts too much. The fact that one of our reviewers has already been brainwashed to believe that the number of deaths during the Armenian Genocide (as opposed to 'tragedy') is questionable clearly proves how the Turkish government has turned physical genocide into political, academic and commercial genocide. I am ashamed for Pope et al for writing and spreading this highly dangerous propaganda aimed at the destruction of minorities living in Turkey and in exile. Instead of promoting peace among nations by writing the truth, this book is simply another product of a totalitarian nationalist regime. What a shame!
