Volume II of The Armenian General Benevolent Union: One Hundred Years of History is an overview of AGBU’s activities from 1941 up to 2006. Informed by archival material and first-hand accounts, original pictures, audio and video material, the e-book pays particular attention to the construction of schools, cultural and athletic centers. It glances at the crisis in the Middle East and its impact on Armenians, and illustrates AGBU’s ongoing relations with Soviet Armenia, and later also the independent Republic of Armenia. The final chapters list AGBU’s programs and financial activities around the globe.

 

Originally published in print by the Central Board of Directors to commemorate AGBU’s centenary in 2006, e-book versions of the two (2) volume set by historians Raymond Kévorkian and Vahé Tachjian were developed by the Armenian Virtual College (AVC) on the occasion of AGBU’s 110th anniversary.  The e-books are available in English, French and Western Armenian.
