This is a fascinating book about what nations seek to remember and forget... This book deserves to find a wide audience in Australia and New Zealand; it would be even better if it prompted their governments to reconsider how they approach the Armenian Genocide. * NZ Listener * 'Lest we forget the other side of Gallipoli, this book tells the Armenian genocide with eye witness account from ANZAC soldiers, US diplomats, and missionaries. It's a heart-breaking story, movingly told, of mass murder provoked by racial and religious hatred.' * Geoffrey Robertson AO QC, author of An Inconvenient Genocide: Who Now Remembers the Armenians? * 'James Robins's book tells a story that needs to be told, and he tells it with passion and power. The genocide of the Armenians is a part of Australia and New Zealand's history, and Robins shows why this tragic story of atrocity and denial should matter to us still.' * Professor Peter Stanley, University of New South Wales, Australia * 'A terrific read that points to the links between the Armenian Genocide and Anzac.' * Serj Tankian, Grammy Award-winning Artist and Activist *
