The Assyrian Levies is a collection of 13 short articles detailing the history of the famous Assyrian military force by Solomon (Sawa) Solomon. The Assyrian Levies were raised by the British in Iraq from among the Assyrians following their exodus from most of their homelands in 1918. The force was destined to exist until 1955 and participated in many historic operations which preserved the integrity of the fledgling Iraqi state and prevented it from falling into the hands of the Axis powers during WWII. Some of the chapters include: ÒThe Battle of RowanduzÓ; ÒThe Assyrian-Turkish Clash of 1924Ó; ÒThe Kirkuk Disturbance of 1924Ó; ÒThe Failed Assyrian Coup of June 1932Ó; and ÒThe Habbaniya Campaign May 1941Ó. Also included are 17 historic photographs.
