The Armenian Crisis in Turkey

This book is an attempt to introduce to the U.S. public the matter of the Armenian Genocide, which was the systematic destruction of the Armenian people and identity in the Ottoman Empire during World War I. Spearheaded by the ruling Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), it was implemented primarily through the mass murder of around one million Armenians during death marches to the Syrian Desert and the forced Islamization of Armenian women and children.
