Gha-ra-bagh!

by Mark Malkasian

"Gha-ra-bagh!" chronicles the initial stages of the first mass national democratic movement in the former Soviet Union. The popular ground swell, which came to be known as the Karabagh movement, transformed the political consciousness of Soviet Armenians and led them to challenge the legitimacy of the Soviet system. This book provides a rich and fascinating history of a pivotal year in Soviet Armenia and a deeper understanding of Armenia's present situation.
