Reviews
The power of the book to instruct us even now is intimately connected with not only its truthfulness about the atrocities and the men behind them, but also the story of how American and other diplomats, missionaries and relief workers did everything they could to end the slaughter and to care for the victims. One sees also the beginning of an American humanitarian outlook in the creation of an broad support for Near East Relief, which helped to save the lives of thousands of Armenians., This new edition, edited by Peter Balakian, includes a foreword by the internationally acclaimed scholar Robert Jay Lifton, an introduction by genocide scholar Roger Smith, and an epilogue by Henry Morgenthau III, who reflects on his grandfather's life of philanthropic work as an international humanitarian diplomat. Morgenthau has also given to this edition previously unpublished photographs of his grandfathers years in Turkey- extraordinary images that bring the reader closer to this historic moment., This book represents one of the central sources on the Armenian Genocide and remains to this day the primary American document on the event as authored by a U.S. official. It is in constant use as a reference and continues to serve as an introductory text to he global problem of genocide."

Synopsis
Originally published in 1918, Ambassador Morgenthau's Story is one of the most insightful and compelling accounts of what became a recurring horror during the twentieth century: ethnic cleansing and genocide. While he served as the U.S. ambassador to the Ottoman Empire under Woodrow Wilson from 1913 to 1916, Henry Morgenthau witnessed the rise of a new nationalism in Turkey, one that declared "Turkey for the Turks." He grew alarmed as he received reports from missionaries and consuls in the interior of Turkey that described deportation and massacre of the Armenians. The ambassador beseeched the U.S. government to intervene, but it refrained, leaving Morgenthau without official leverage. His recourse was to appeal personally to the consciences of Ottoman rulers and their German allies; when that failed, he drew international media attention to the genocide and spearheaded private relief efforts. "The power of Morgenthau's book to move and instruct us eighty years after its publication," writes Roger Smith in his introduction, "is intimately connected with its truthfulness about the atrocities and the men behind them, but also about the capacities of humans to commit enormous evil with a light heart." The memoir also documents the beginnings of U.S. interest in international human rights as well as patterns and symptoms of genocidal tendencies, foreshadowing most notably the Nazi Holocaust., Originally published in 1918, Ambassador Morgenthau's Story is one of the most insightful and compelling accounts of what became a recurring horror during the twentieth century: ethnic cleansing and genocide. While he served as the U.S. ambassador to the Ottoman Empire under Woodrow Wilson from 1913 to 1916, Henry Morgenthau witnessed the rise of a new nationalism in Turkey, one that declared "Turkey for the Turks."

- _***i (66)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGood shipping, packaging, and was as described. God value as well, especially with the content of the cd. I am happy to have found this cd of one of the most important animal activists. In the cd, Gary Yourofsky shares the moral imperative of granting animals their negative rights. Like the right not to be enslaved and murdered! He shares the vegan message, a message that in my view, grants animals the same rights as human beings if they were to be trait equalized.PETA Gary Yourofsky Liberator To Educator CD (Nr. 266689252823)
