The Hundred-Year Walk: An Armenian Odyssey - Dawn Anahid MacKeen

A very intense book, fascinating and frustrating for all the same reasons as the stories of the Holocaust, you want the people to fight back, to do something, ANYTHING, but no one realizes how bad it will get until it's too late and everyone is too exhausted to do anything about it.
The fact that the Turkish government and many of the people still deny that this even took place is unforgivable.  
This is a powerful and disturbing story and everyone should learn about a genocide that Hitler based his own genocide on.
