GENERAL COMMENTS
This is one of the few narratives of the genocide by someone who was witness to many of the events he described, complementing his story with that of others; he documented the events between 1915 and 1918; Introduction by the author (Za`feran Monastery, 5 Sept. 1918). Later Dutch and German translations were made of this early eye witness account. With a preface by Mor Julius Çiçek (1998) and by the author (Dayro d-Za`faran, 1918) Note the last page that honors those that helped finance the book. Toc: back of the book, p. 153-157
