    Azerbaijan, Baku, 5 March / Trend News corr J. Babayeva/ On 5 March,
    the Azeri version of the book by the British journalist Thomas de Waal
    ' Black Garden: Armenia and Azerbaijan through peace and war ' was
    presented in Baku. It was translated into Azeri with the financial
    support of the US Embassy in Azerbaijan.

    " Black Garden: Armenia and Azerbaijan through peace and war ' tells
    about the history of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the on-going
    processes in the region".

    According to the Head of the PR Department at the US Embassy
    in Azerbaijan, Jonathan Henik, the Embassy does not bear the
    responsibility for the thoughts of the writer.

    "We are sure not everybody in Azerbaijan and Armenia will agree with
    the several facts reflected in the book," he said.

    According to Thomas de Waal, the book was written in order to realize
    the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. "I wanted to realize the core of the
    conflict, but could not find enough information about that. So,
    I decided to collect the facts and to compile them into a book,
    thus trying to realize the core of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict."

    In February 2006, the English version of the book was presented
    in Baku.

    Thomas de Waal is Caucasus editor at the Institute for War and Peace
    Reporting in London.
