Synopsis "Autobiography & Recollections (in English)"
Written toward the end of his remarkable life, Autobiography & Recollections tells the story of Bedros Der Bedrossian who lived through some of the most turbulent and tragic episodes of modern human history. He was shot at by a Turkish sniper when he was just 10 years old and by the age of 11 he had already survived two massacres. Yet the worst was still to come. The Turks wiped out an estimated 1.5 million Armenians during the first genocide of the 20th century, which commenced in April 1915. Der Bedrossian describes how he lost all but a few members of his family in the Armenian Genocide; and how he and a young niece survived only because a Danish hospital administrator to whom he owed a debt insisted they remain in hiding in her home with several others. This is a riveting and heartbreaking tale of death and destruction; yet it is also a story of love, hope, perseverance, and survival. This book is an invaluable resource to historians and genocide scholars. Perhaps more importantly, by documenting the unfairness of life as a Christians in Muslim nations, it serves as a dire warning to a world currently grappling with the rise of Islamic extremism.
