Empires rise, and Armenia endures. In Volume II of Michael Chamich's History of Armenia, Johannes Avdall's English translation carries you from deep antiquity to Armenia through 1780, tracing how a small highland nation negotiates conquest, faith, and survival. A translated historical chronicle drawn from learned tradition and earlier records, this is a primary source history text of enduring authority. Follow Armenian kings and dynasties as power shifts across ancient and medieval Armenia, from neighbouring courts to the contested passes of the Caucasus. Alongside the rulers runs Armenian church history: councils, schisms, and the steady work of guardianship that kept identity intact. Chamich sets Armenia in the wider theatre of caucasus regional politics, mapping Byzantine Persian relations and later the Ottoman Safavid frontier history that reshaped borders, loyalties, and daily life. For readers of Armenian studies reference works and for historians seeking an academic history sourcebook, the narrative offers a rare, coherent view of a region too often told only from the outside. First published in the age of Enlightenment scholarship, Chamich's synthesis remains a cornerstone for Armenian historiography, prized for its continuity of dates, names, and context across many centuries. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Part of a complete national history collection, it belongs on the shelf of classic-literature collectors and belongs in the hands of curious travellers of the past.
