| Summary | "Archag, the Little Armenian" by Charles H. Schnapps is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Archag, a young Armenian boy, during a tumultuous time for his people marked by oppression and struggle for identity. Through Archag's experiences both in school and at home in Van, the narrative delves into the cultural and historical backdrop of Armenian society, highlighting their resolve and aspirations amidst adversity. The opening of the book introduces readers to Archag's daily life as a schoolboy and his emotional response to the heroic tales of Armenian leaders like Vartan the Mamigonian. Readers see a glimpse of Archag's close-knit family, his playful interactions with his sister Nizam, and his excitement about school and local legends. The narrative sets a poignant tone by reflecting on the tragic history of the Armenian people while presenting their rich culture through the eyes of a curious and spirited child. The promise of adventure is palpable as Archag yearns to emulate his heroes, making it clear that the work not only recounts his youthful escapades but also aims to highlight the broader struggles of his people.
