David Marshall Lang provides a history of these fascinating people.’ Auberon Waugh, The Daily Mail ‘A compendium of fascinating information not available elsewhere. The Armenians are remarkable people, and this book helps us to know them better.’ Church Times ‘This is an encouraging book for it is a saga of the indestructibility of the human spirit.’ New Law Journal.
