Mission to Marash

"Hunted by Ottoman spies, condemned to death by the Young Turks, or exiled to the searing Syrian Desert. A pharmacist, a widow, a missionary descended from Spanish Aristocracy, a Franciscan Father (nicknamed the "Bomb Throwing Priest"), and a young couple betrothed from a very young age and separated by barbarity. This hard-hitting story is based on real people, fighting to survive the first Genocide of the 20th century."--Page 4 of cover.
