Initially published in French under the title Operation Nemesis,
this revealing work is a study of the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation and the individuals responsible for the execution of
Turkish leaders involved in the Armenian Genocide of 1915. Derogy's
rigorous research and detective work bring to life the disciplined
effort by Armenian nationalists to seek retribution for historic
crimes against the Armenian people. The work richly details Turkish
plans for the liquidation of the Armenian people, the individuals
selected to assassinate the genocidists, and documents for the
first time the role of the organized Armenian political opposition
to Turkish rule. In doing so, Derogy brings to light the
relationship between the legal party and its extra-legal arm; the
mechanisms needed to implement the daring plan of assassination;
and the special post-war circumstances in which the Armenian nation
found itself torn asunder by a Turkish-Soviet detente, in which the
independence of Armenia became the sacrificial pawn. Derogy worked
closely with scholars around the world and interviewed first-hand
survivors who had direct contact with the events described. His is
a detective story of the first rank and a historical reconstruction
of an obscured chapter of Armenian history.
