Dedicated To The Youth Of The Nations Represented In The Turkish Ordeal
“My story is simple. It does not aim at a moral. But I pray . . that the future Youth who will read it may tear away the veil behind which they slew each other and were slain . . . recognize their likeness in the eyes of their brothers . . . grip each other’s hands . . . and on the old Ruins of hatred and Desolation erect a New World of Brotherhood and Peace.”
