`  I would be hard pressed to give you the authority to declare the works of Housepian and Horton to be ``the most unscholarly in history`` (sic.) True, Horton's work is more a memoir and thus a primary rather than scholarly work, but Housepian's is quite well referenced, I would recommend reading it. Or you could try Morgenthau's work, the US Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire during the time period preceding these events.  `
