A charming, locally printed collection of Armenian literature produced at the American College in Aleppo. Syria. It contains 17 pieces of poetry and criticisms written by Armenian students at the College in 1944.

The college was founded by the American Board of Commissioners and Foreign Missions in 1876 in Aintab. However, it relocated to Aleppo due to the Armenian Genocide of 1915.
