"AN ANSWER TO TURKISH DENIALS", COMPILED BY JOHN AHMARANIAN, PH.D. COVERING THE QUOTATIONS AND CARICATURES PREPARED BY THE MEDIA FROM 1896-1923, THE PERIOD OF THE GREAT WAR AND THE GRIM PERIOD OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE. ALL PRIMARY SOURCES HAVE BEEN GATHERED FROM VARIOUS NEWSPAPERS, JOURNALS AND OTHER CIRCULATIONS INTRODUCING THE ILLUSTRATIONS PREPARED AT THE TIME, REFLECTED ON THE OTTOMAN/TURKISH EMPIRE AND IT'S RELATIONSHIP WITH THE WESTERN POWERS. THE BOOK DEMONSTRATES THE UPHEAVALS OF THE NEAR EAST AND THE BALKAN CONFLICT IN RELATION TO THE DENIALS MADE BY THE TURKISH AUTHORRITIES SINCE THE TURN OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY. THE BOOK ALSO DEMONSTRATES THE ERA OF THE MID-1890S, WHICH BECAME CRUCIAL YEARS THAT SAW TO THE EMERGENCE OF THE YOUNG TURKS, TURKISH NATIONALISM, REVOLUTIONARY MOVEMENTS WITHIN THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE INSPIRED BY THE WEST, AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE ARMENIAN POPULATION. THE CLIPPINGS OF THE TIME, RELAY THE MESSAGE OF THE ARMENIAN MASSACRES, AND THE INEFFECTIVENESS OF THE WESTERN POWERS TO DEAL WITH "THE SICK MAN OF EUROPE." NEVERTHELESS, AHMARANIAN'S BOOK DOES NOT CONDEMN THE TURKISH PEOPLE FOR THE ATROCITIES COMMITTED BY THE RESPONSIBLE PARTIES DURING THE PAST ERA BUT BRINGS FORTH A DIALOGUE ON THE INHUMANITY OF THE PERIOD, BASED ON THE ILLUSTRATIONS GATHERED FROM THE VARIOUS SOURCES.
