Item description from seller

Ships of Mercy reveals the true heroes of Smyrna, forgotten by history. It is based on more than 10 years of research by the Papoutsy's who travelled around the globe to document the rescue of hundreds of thousands of Greek refugees on the Smyrna quay in September 1922. .this book uncovers surprising answers and displays previously unpublished materials. Vintage photographs, naval war diaries and captain's logs appear for the first time in the pages of this volume. Ships of Mercy dispels common myths about the evacuation of the refugees and documents clearly the real saviours in this enormous tragedy.
