This is a standard scholarly two volume history of the Armenian people from antiquity to the modern period, with chapters from named specialist contributors, edited by Richard Hovannisian, covering the Armenian Apostolic Church within the broader national history rather than as an isolated religious subject. This record states its own limit: it is a national history, so a claim needing close doctrinal detail about the Armenian Church specifically may need a source focused on its theology directly rather than this broader historical work. Use it for established historical facts about Armenia and Armenian Christianity within that national narrative.
