    The first book to chronicle the aftermath of the twentieth centurys first genocide, this groundbreaking work recounts the Armenians struggle for justice in the face of fifty years of silence and denial. First comprehensive account: From 1915 to 1923, the Ottoman Turks drove two million Armenians from their ancestral homeland, slaughtering 1.5 million of them in the process. After an immediate groundswell of support for the starving Armenians led by President Woodrow Wilson, the atrocities were wiped from public consciousness. Why has Turkey never been held accountable? This, the first account of the post-Genocide era, explains how and why the event disappeared from the worlds memory and reveals for the first time the full story of the events that conspired to conceal the truth. Powerful narrative: Children of Armenia blends characterdriven narrative with historical analysis, tracking three central figuresa terrorist seeking revenge, a lawyer seeking reparations, and a lobbyist seeking recognitionto deliver a powerful true story in the tradition of Iris Chang, Peter Balakian, Samantha Power, and Philip Gourevitch. Timely: From rwanda to Darfur to Bosnia, there has been much discussion of twentieth-century genocides, the proper u.S. response, and the tragic aftermaths. Bobelians pioneering account of the post-Genocide generations struggle for justice demonstrates just how critical the establishment of truth is for peaceful reconciliation.
