Diana Colpitts
Diana's grandfather was an intellectual who had written many books. However, Dr. Daghavarian left his mark specifically with this book called Turkey and The Turk: By One Who Knows, published in 1912 (two years before the onset of the genocide). Dr. Daghavarian would write scientific and activists books, and the one pictured here was an activist book. He described a "realistic assessment of the history of Turkish oppression of Armenians and the results, the previous pogroms". Diana's grandfather had created this book in hopes to spread the information to other people and even future generations, as it can be seen on the title page "When read kindly pass this on".
