Vartan of Nazareth: Missionary and Medical Pioneer in the Nineteenth-century MIddle East, is the little-known story of a medical pioneer and missionary who founded a hospital in Nazareth 150 years ago. This book traces the remarkable life of Pacradooni Kaloost Vartan, the son of a poor Armenian tailor in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul), who left school to join the British Army as an interpreter in the Crimea and, having witnessed the rigours of battlefield medicine, was drawn to a career as a surgeon and physician; his marriage to Mary Anne, a daughter of the Manse and the young couple's departure for Palestine. The book also tells of Vartan's legacy after his death in 1908 and follows the development of the hospital through the turbulent times of the First World War, the British Mandate and the birth of modern Israel. Against all odds the hospital survived. It is still registered in Scotland and, in a remarkable link with the past, the founder's great grand-son, John Vartan, is actively involved.
