Description:
New York, New York, U.S.A.: Greekworks.Com Inc, 2005. "On the night of September 6-7, 1955, the Greek community of Istanbul was violently struck throughout the expanse of Turkey's most important metropolis. Within hours, businesses, homes, and even the churches of the Greeks were in ruins, with the British press calculating the damage at 100 million. It was the beginning of the end for the ethnic descendants of the city's founders, who had first settled this eastern tip of Europe over two and a half millennia earlier". 659 pages [plus a signficant section of photographs], appendixes, bibliography, index. Clean. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
