Tigran Kalaydjian

Sentinel of Truth provides a gripping account of the assassination of two Turkish diplomats in California in 1973 by an aggrieved septuagenarian survivor of the Armenian Genocide and explains how a study of the global campaign against Turkeys denial of the genocide cannot but include the killings carried out by Gourgen Yanikian.-----By describing in detail the effects these and subsequent acts of militancy had on the consciousness of diasporan Armenians, author Tigran Kalaydjian sheds new light on the activities of the tightly-knit group of people that is spearheading the drive for a comprehensive redress of the human rights disaster of 1915 and elucidates the many facets of the Diasporas decades-long struggle for justice.
