It is about the mass murder of the Armenians by the Turks of the Ottoman empire in the first years of the twentieth century. The two main centres affected were Istanbul (then known as Constantinople) and Tarsus in Armenia. Davenport lived in both and experienced at first-hand the horror and atrocities of that time.
