From the Dust Jacket: "This study is the first thorough, well-documented discussion of a controversial subject, the establishment of Armenian independence. Several distinct yet interrelated themes are developed; the historical experiences of the Armenians; the sociopolitical status in the Ottoman and Romanov empires; the effects of World War I and the Russian revolutions upon them; the attempts of the peoples of Transcaucasia to forge a common policy and to stand against both Turkey and Soviet Russia; the rivalry of Germany, Turkey, and Russia for control of Transcaucasia; and the ethnographic, political, and military considerations that led first to the disintegration of Russia, then to the fragmentation of Transcaucasia, and finally to the formation of the republics of Georgia, Azerbaijan, and Armenia.". Third printing of the 1967 original. Hard Cover. Near Fine condition/VG DJ (price clipped). 8vo. (xi), 364pp.
