Written in 1917, towards the end of World War 1 and during a time of immense strife for the Armenian people known as The Armenian Genocide, "Armenia and The War" implores the reader to examine the events of the preceding few years. In Hacobian's own words, "That is my plea for placing this statement of the cause of my afflicted country before the British public, confident that, with its inherent love of fair play, it will give my pleading a fair hearing." Covered, in order, are: Armenia as a war issue, effect on American opinion, Armenia and reparation, Armenia's martyrdom, condemnation, Anglo-Russian friendship, Turkish rule, Armenian democratic tendencies, Armenia as a peace problem, Armenia alone, Armenia's services during the war (World War 1), Armenia as a battleground for contending empires, excerpts from "The Blue Book," an appeal to Britain, and an appeal to the coming peace conference.
