This review is from: Miracle Man of the Western Front: Dr. Varaztad H. Kazanjian Pioneer Plastic Surgeon (Hardcover)
The Miracle Man is an inspiring piece of work about a truly unique individual, who lived the American dream against all odds and managed to revolutionize the field of plastic and reconstructive surgery. Amid the turmoil of World War I and a campaign of genocide by the Turkish government against the Armenian people, Kazanjian, a dentist with broken English, managed to bring some peace to the ravaged allied soldiers. Revered on the battlefield, Kazanjian found himself relegated once again upon his return home to the US. However, this is the story of a resilient man and impressively, one who maintained his humble and humane attitude in life. This is an important piece of history for all to read.

This review is from: Miracle Man of the Western Front: Dr. Varaztad H. Kazanjian Pioneer Plastic Surgeon (Hardcover)
Extremely well written book. VERY interesting! Dr. Kazanjian operated on me when he was 74 and I was 12. How blessed I was to have known him.
Having read this book, I find it absolutely incredible that any individual could accomplish so much in only ONE lifetime. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who was as fortunate as I to have been on the receiving end of Dr. Kazanjian's brilliance and expertise.
