After we had taken our fill of gazing at the sea, we once more turned our steps inland in the direction of the monastery of Sumelas. The path now rose to a considerably greater height than before, and from the elevation we had attained we could judge of the lofty barrier which the mountains form between the district of Trebizond and the neighbouring parts of Armenia and Asia Minor. So complete is the watershed that no streams whatsoever pass through these ranges from the interior to the sea, and with Asia Minor in particular there is hardly any communication from the coast. These geographical features explain the mediaeval history of Trebizond, and its existence for so long a period as an independent kingdom, for it was thus isolated from the adjoining continent and defended against attacks from that quarter, whilst at the same time it was forced to depend on its own narrow, though productive, territory, and on the sea. As we proceeded, valley of sumelas. 485 the track became so slight as to be hardly traceable, and at length we reached a steep declivity, where we made our way on foot do

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of Turkey and Armenia In the preparation of this book great care and pains has been taken to use only such information of the massacres and condition of the country as were known to be trustworthy. Many hundreds of letters, written by eye-witnesses, have been placed at our disposal; but nearly all of these we are unable to publish. Nearly all which are given were furnished by private parties, who had friends in Armenia, or were written by missionaries. We are compelled to withhold in nearly every instance the names of the writers of these letters on account of their personal safety. The illustrations, which greatly increase the value of this book, have been secured through the kindness of former residents in that country and also by direct importation from Constantinople, and furnish the reader a truthful knowledge of the country and its people. The publishers desire to make a public acknowledgment of the kindness of the editors of the Review of Reviews, Independent, and Outlook, of New York. They kindly gave permission to make use of articles which had appeared in their papers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammar of the Modern Armenian Language as Spoken in Constantinople and Asia Minor It is difficult to trace the history of the modern language. Ev idence of the existence of some of its distinctive forms is found as far back as the thirteenth century. Their introduction was no doubt gradual. Still the Ancient Armenian continued to be the only language of books, for ages after the spoken tongue had become substantially what it is at the present day. It is only during the present century that the modern language has begun to be cultivated as a language of books, the genius of the age and the best interests of humanity requiring that authors should no longer. As formerly, veil their ideas in a dialect accessible only to the few, but should spread them far and wide in the free and idiomatic use of the languages vernacular to their countrymen. Facilities for the acquisition of the Ancient Armenian exist both in English and in other European tongues, and an abundance of excellent Grammars and Lexicons await the scholar, who is prepared to avail himself of them, in the language itself. But, so far as I am aware, the present is the first attempt to exhibit the grammar of the Modern Armenian.
