About ARMENIA: A Journey Through History
For many people of Armenian descent, both young and old, there has long been a desire to learn more about their cultural heritage and their legacy as an ancient people with a highly developed culture.
ARMENIA: A Journey Through History, by Dr. Arra S. Avakian, helps answer that need by presenting a wealth of information about the Armenian people, their history, significant events, important places and individuals who helped shape the Armenian nation.
The information is presented through well over one hundred individual stories. Each story is concise, complete in itself and easy to read and understand. Illustrations accompanying many of the historical vignettes add vitality and context to the narrative.
The book is designed for readers who want an accessible introduction to Armenian history, as well as those who wish to deepen their understanding of Armenian culture, heritage and identity.
