Armenia Kolebka Cywilizacji. Przelozyl Tadeusz Szafar.

Warszawa: Panstwowy Instytut Wydawniczy, 1975. Hardcover. 309p., numerous b&w and color plates (mostly churches and illuminated mss), text is entirely in Armenian. Hardbound in 9x6 inch openweave grey cloth boards titled red and decorated in blind, and enclosed in the dust jacket. Mild shelfwear to book itself, jacket is dirty, edgeworn, and has a three-inch verso tape repair. An else sound copy, clean within and unmarked.

This translation renders the original English language issue, but at 1975 is too early to use Lang's expanded 1978 edition, which was the fruit of author's 1978 visit to Erevan with continuous collection of material on-site in Bulgaria, Romania, France, Italy, Austria, the United States and Syria. The diaspora, Lang said there will be treated of in "an entirely new sequel" which will also describe the holocaust in more detail --apparently that was published as "The Armenians a people in exile," London 1981.
