Book Title: Survivors: Oral History of the Armenian Genocide: An Oral History of the Armenian Genocide Book Author: Donald E Miller (Author) Paperback: 256 pages Publisher: University of California Press; New Ed edition (19 Mar 1999) Language: English ISBN-10: 0520219562 ISBN-13: 978-0520219564 The pdf format is a conversion from the epub version, and not a very good one, but the text can be read and if you have the skills, you can convert it again.:) Between 1915 and 1923, over one million Armenians died, victims of a genocidal campaign that is still denied by the Turkish government. Thousands of other Armenians suffered torture, brutality, deportation. Yet their story has received scant attention. Through interviews with a hundred elderly Armenians, Donald and Lorna Miller give the "forgotten genocide" the hearing it deserves. Survivors raise important issues about genocide and about how people cope with traumatic experience. Much here is wrenchingly painful, yet it also speaks to the strength of the human spirit.  Review "The Millers . . . do not attempt to distance themselves from their material and do not conceal their involvement with the survivors. Yet they are fair in their judgments and do not suppress evidence of the humanity and kindness to the Armenians of many Turks who opposed the deportation and bloodshed. . . . Provides additional evidence, if such is needed, of one of the greatest tragedies of modern history."--Firoz Kazemzadeh, "New York Times Book Review About the Author Donald E.
