William James Wintle, 1861-1934, was an English writer and journalist who wrote for various weekly and monthly publications. Wintle felt compelled to write this book after learning of the Hamidian massacres of 1894-96. The massacres resulted in the death of 200,000-300,000 Armenian and Assyrian Christian civilians after Sultan Abdul Hamid II re-established Pan-Islamism as state ideology in a last-ditch attempt to maintain the imperial domain of the collapsing Ottoman Empire.
