"Sargon Donabed provides a comprehensive overview of the modern
Assyrian story, merging emic and etic perspectives of their
struggle to attain sovereignty over the past century and beyond.
His work offers both an informative source for Assyrian ethnic
history and an alternative reading for Mesopotamian regional
history as a whole." -- Nabil Al-Tikriti, University of Mary
Washington
"In telling the story of modern Assyrian responses to a history of
tragedy, Sargon Donabed helps us understand them as actors in their
own right. He thereby rewrites Iraqi history from the perspective
of the oppressed. No longer may we ignore the plight of this
misunderstood minority." -- Paul S. Rowe, Trinity Western
University
