Kokhwa - Volume IV

Kokhwa (the Star) was the first independent Assyrian newspaper published by and for Assyrians. It was published between June 1906 and January 1918. The very first Assyrian newspaper was Zahrere d'Bahra (Rays of Light) which was published by the American Presbyterian Mission. Other Assyrian newspapers published by other missions were Qala d'Shrara (Voice of Truth) by the Catholics and Urmi Artadoksaita (Orthodox Urmia) by the Russians. In the midst of this sectarian division, Yohannan Mushie founded Kokhwa to serve as a voice for all Assyrians. This reprint in 7 volumes contains 209 of the 213 issues that are believed to have been published. Volume IV contains 37 issues from December 1910 to June 1912 (Vol. 5: Nos. 11-23; Vol. 6: Nos. 1-23; Vol. 7: No. 1)
