Title: Take this book with a grain of salt . . .
Product review: This book is an attempt to take the blame off Turkey for its past and blame others for its ethnic problems. For example, no distinction is made between war victims, and those deliberately murdered by a government--Genocide. While much of it is certainly true, one must realize the context in which it is written. The best way to put it might be like this- Mr. McCarthy writing this book, would be similar to: a revisionist historian, who denied the Holocaust, had testified before Congress (to deny the Holocaust) at the request of an unrepentant German government, then writing a book about German exiles and immigrants who were the victims of a great Jewish/Bolshevik conspiracy. If you know this first, then it may be a book worth reading. The little-told story of Muslim exiles and war victims, is certainly worth telling, but it should not be used as propaganda to fuel the fire of those who would deny genocide--as it appears this book certainly will be.
