Description
Lewis Einstein was the first United States official to publicly speak against the genocide of Armenians and his diaries foreshadowed much of what Ambassador Morgenthau wrote in his memoirs a year later. Both works supported each other in giving us invaluable insights into how, and how well, American officials were informed of the Armenian Genocide in 1915. Einstein published his account, as Sarafian's introduction shows, because he disagreed with United States policy on the Armenian issue. EInstein wanted the United States to break diplomatic ties with Ottoman Turkey and threaten war to stop the carnage.
