organizations who gave their time, research materials, and
expertise on affairs in the nations of the Transcaucasus to

The collection of accurate and current information was assisted
greatly by the contributions of Professor Stephen Jones of Mount
Holyoke College, Dee Ann Holisky and Betty Blair of Azerbaijan
International, and Joseph Masih of the Armenian Assembly of
America. The authors acknowledge the generosity of individuals
and public and private agencies including Azerbaijan
International, the Embassy of Azerbaijan, and the White House
Photo Office, who allowed their photographs to be used in this
study.
Thanks also go to Ralph K. Benesch, who oversees the Country
Studies/Area Handbook Program for the Department of the Army. In
addition, the authors appreciate the advice and guidance of

handbook series. Special thanks go to Marilyn L. Majeska, who
supervised editing; Andrea T. Merrill, who managed production;
