Twenty-year-old Prince Jappath is lost in the woods for what feels like almost a week. After struggling to return to his father's kingdom, Dore, he finds that he has been gone for ten years and that the kingdom is preparing for war. Haunted by fragmented memories of a warrior princess, Jappath struggles to solve a puzzle of conspiracies and betrayals. When winged warriors Princess Zayna and her escort, suddenly arrive before the war's final battle, more questions and memories arise for Jappath. The battle is ferocious, filled with stratagems, tactics, and war machines. Zayna is seriously wounded during the battle. The battle is not going well. Then when all seems lost, King Yousif and his flying warriors come to Dore's rescue. Jappath's great uncle, Arkhedish the wizard, tends to Zayna's wounds and, using old and new magic, reveals the truth of Jappath's forgotten past. Marty Farnsworth has always told stories to his coworkers. After a knee replacement, as he was recuperating in a hospital, he felt he couldn't find employment suitable for his financial needs. After much pondering, praying, and meditating, he began to take classes and write. First he started with screenplays because they were a comfortable medium. As he grew in this field, he met Romeo Eshalom, and the two began a friendship that blossomed. Through this friendship, Marty began to learn about the Assyrian/Chaldean culture and was told an amazing folktale that would have been lost if not written down. When Marty began writing this novel, he found that, as with the ancient master storytellers, parts of the story seemed to write themselves. Marty lives in Phoenix with his wife. This is his first novel. Romeo Newton Eshalom was a lieutenant colonel in Saddam Hussein's Iraqi army. He was born and raised in Iraq and suffered many hardships because of Christian beliefs. Even when he was placed in positions of judgment and authority, his ethics showed through and caused some to benefit from his heritage. He listened at his grandfather's feet as his grandfather told many stories in his master-storyteller ways; it was in a time before television, and the stories could be seen vividly, each with morality woven into it. He remembered these tales as he grew up. After Romeo moved to Phoenix, he worked on and completed his master's degree in engineering. During this time, his friendship with Marty Farnsworth blossomed, and the two collaborated extensively on several screenplays. Romeo lives in Phoenix with his family.

For a brief period, the attention of the international community has focused once again on the plight of religious minorities in Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. In particular, the abductions and massacres of Yezidis and Assyrians in the Sinjar, Mosul, Nineveh Plains, Baghdad, and Hasakah regions in 2007–2015 raised questions about the prevention of genocide. This book, while principally analyzing the Assyrian genocide of 1914–1925 and its implications for the culture and politics of the region, also raises broader questions concerning the future of religious diversity in the Middle East. It gathers and analyzes the findings of a broad spectrum of historical and scholarly works on Christian identities in the Middle East, genocide studies, international law, and the politics of the late Ottoman Empire, as well as the politics of the Ottomans' British and Russian rivals for power in western Asia and the eastern Mediterranean basin. A key question the book raises is whether the fate of the Assyrians maps onto any of the concepts used within international law and diplomatic history to study genocide and group violence. In this light, the Assyrian genocide stands out as being several times larger, in both absolute terms and relative to the size of the affected group, than the Srebrenica genocide, which is recognized by Turkey as well as by international tribunals and organizations. Including its Armenian and Greek victims, the Ottoman Christian Genocide rivals the Rwandan, Bengali, and Biafran genocides. The book also aims to explore the impact of the genocide period of 1914–1925 on the development or partial unraveling of Assyrian group cohesion, including aspirations to autonomy in the Assyrian areas of northern Iraq, northwestern Iran, and southeastern Turkey. Scholars from around the world have collaborated to approach these research questions by reference to diplomatic and political archives, international legal materials, memoirs, and literary works.

Though the Christians of Iraq trace their origin to the ancient Assyrians, some Western writers have expressed doubt about such a possibility, because history books make no mention about what happened to the ancient Assyrians, after their 612 BC defeat by the Babylonians and the Medians. This has led to the mistaken assumption that they were defeated into extinction. Contrary to the popular belief, ancient Assyrians survived their 612 BC defeat, and their descendants continued into the Christian era. As Assyrialogist H.W.F. Saggs puts it: "The destruction of the Assyrian empire did not wipe out its population. They were predominantly peasant farmers, and since Assyria contains some of the best wheat land in the Near East, descendants of the Assyrian peasants would, as opportunity permitted, build new villages over the old cities and carry on with agricultural life, remembering traditions of the former cities. After seven or eight centuries and various vicissitudes, these people became Christians." Other Assyrialogists such as Simo Parpola, Robert D. Diggs, Giorgi Tsereteli, and Iranologists like Richard Nelson Frye have come to the same conclusion. Assyrians Beyond the Fall of Nineveh presents historical and Archaeological evidences to document these facts. It provides information about the survival of the ancient Assyrians after their fall, in the cities of Ashur, Hatra, Nineveh, Harran, and other places. Evidences suggest that some aspects of the ancient Assyrians religion and culture survived into the Christian era among their descendants. The 2nd part of the book deals with the history of the Christians of Iraq, who consider themselves descendants of the ancient Assyrians, but since the 2003 invasion of that country by the United States, they have been subjected to various forms of persecutions, by the Islamists. Assyrians Beyond the Fall of Nineveh describes their extreme suffering, heroism, and achievements.

The widespread persecution of the Christian Assyrians by neighboring populations in the Ottoman Empire led to their immigration to the United States. Beginning at the end of the 19th century, with an influx during the Great War, Assyrians settled mostly in eastern Massachusetts, finding an abundance of work along its ports and among its large factory base. Concerned with the welfare of their community, these immigrants established a multitude of cultural, social, and political institutions to help promote awareness of Assyria. The establishment of St. Mary's Assyrian Apostolic Church, the first of its kind outside of the Middle East, prompted the solidarity of Assyrians in Massachusetts and became a model for later settlements of Assyrians in the United States. Through family portraits and documents from both religious and secular institutions, Assyrians of Eastern Massachusetts addresses the adjustment of this community in the United States.
