CARAVANS TO OBLIVION”It is absolutely necessary to eliminate the Armenian people in its entirety, so that there is no further Armenian on this earth and the very concept of Armenia is extinguished.”—From a speech presented to the Turkish Committee of Union and Progress, February, 1915 A chilling history of the first genocide in the twentieth century Though the Turkish government continues to deny it ever took place, over one million Armenian men and women were brutally slaughtered in an attempt to eliminate the Armenian population from Turkey early in World War I. Based on newly available sources, including authenticated telegrams, author G. S. Graber proves that the Armenian slaughter was centrally organized and directed by a Turkish government seeking to systematically exterminate the Armenians. Caravans to Oblivion also reveals how Western allies, principally the British and the French, failed to honor their pledge to bring Turkish officials to trial. * Includes compelling evidence that the Turkish government organized the massacres * Recounts the roles played by many of the political giants of the period, including Winston Churchill, David Lloyd George, and Henry Morganthau. About the AuthorG. S. GRABER (Los Angeles, California) is a historian and a writer whose books include The History of the SS and The Life and Times of Reinhard Heydrich.Very Interesting read!ReviewsFIVE STARS!! … Short, Concise and Accurate. Great book. GREAT job of combining research and readability!! … G. S. Graber delved deep into first-person testimonials, government records, and tomes written by others to cover the Armenian Genocides from several key angles. It was thoroughly engaging and expansive. Why “Young Turk” is not a compliment … Genocide is a pure evil; it comes as close to an absolute as anything else I can think of. The Genocide documented in this book was perpetrated by “The Young Turks” against Christians, and in the case of this demented terror the primary target were the people of Armenia. What makes this mass murder so unique is that the Turkish Government to this day does not accept responsibility for what they did, they do not even admit that the slaughter took place. In a demonstration of arrogance that is supreme, they recently raised a Memorial to the Turks killed by Armenians. This book was harder to read than others on Genocides that are more familiar, for me it was as difficult to read as “The Rape Of Nanking”. I would never insult the memory of any victims, but these last two episodes I mention were particularly brutal, particularly sadistic. Neither were assembly line killings. Like the Jews that were worked to death, Armenians were marched into the desert until their skin blackened and they died. Farm implements were often the murder weapons of choice to dismember victims. The Turkish Soldiers would place bets like their counterparts in Nanking as to the gender of a child a pregnant woman carried. Then they found out who won. The details I leave to your own thoughts. How outrageous was this? When certain Armenians took matters into their own hands and assassinated the cowardly leaders of Turkey that fled to Germany, German juries let them go. They were appalled by what was done, and the fact the German Military was to a degree complicit. It is alleged that when confronted with the question of how the world would ever tolerate the “Final Solution” of Hitler’s Germany, Hitler was said to have answered, “Who remembers the 1.5 million Armenians”, and only 15 years had passed. Other Countries who have committed crimes against Humanity have admitted their acts some have even paid reparations. Turkey’s government remains unique, in that they compare unfavorably to The Germany of the Third Reich. A dubious distinction.Those who deny history … That this book probes areas of history which make the Turkish government uncomfortable is all too clearly demonstrated by the many “denier” reviews …- though of course no further proof of the campaign of denial by the Turkish government was needed, considering the mountains of evidence available. If you’re wondering why the countries of the EU are reluctant to admit Turkey, this book gives some very clear clues. Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it…and those who deny the crimes of their ancestors share their complicity. An eye-opening book.Marvellous Reading!
