This book was written by Koorish Yacob Schlemon, who taught and led prayers at the Evangelical Church in Baghdad, Iraq over some parts of the second half of the twentieth century. Koorish Yacoub Shlemon was a soldier, teacher, and author. During WWI, he served as a soldier and officer in the Assyrian battalion in Urmia under Agha Petros. He was among the 50,000 - 70,000 Assyrians who escaped from Urmia after the withdrawal of the Russian Army. He experienced life in Baquba Refugee Camp in Iraq and later settled in Baghdad. After the death of Rev. Khando the dean and administrator of the Assyrian school in Baghdad, Koorish ran the school for many years before immigrating to the US and settling in Chicago. As a person who personally lived the events that the Assyrians went through between the two great wars, Koorish Yacoub Shlemon gives detailed descriptions of the devastating experiences of the Assyrian people and the steps taken by the various Assyrian leaders during that period.
