A glimpse into the horror of one piece of the genocide that took place in Turkey in the early 1900's, The Great Fire, by Lou Ureneck, conveys the dark side and a few strands of silver lining amidst the disaster. With issues like American interests in oil & tobacco, folks interested in self-promotion, pay-back and deeply engrained religious prejudice, there are many lessons for today, including the role of little-known and unexpected people making compassionate, valiant, and even successful efforts to care for those in suffering.
