Zusammenfassung:Klappentext: The Armenians of Musa Dagh (now in Hatay province of Turkey) resisted the Ottoman government’s displacement order, but lost. Their struggle has naturally been praised by the successive generations of diaspora Armenians and their sympathizers, but what made their defiance become known all over the world was not the “extraordinary” nature of their rescue by allied ships, but Franz Werfel’s novel The Forty Days of Musa Dagh. This book provides an alternative narrative of the events that unfolded around Musa Dagh. The story has been presented primarily through the eyes of Armenian and Ottoman sources so that the reader will have a balanced view as to what factually took place during the uprising.
