Item description from seller

Bright and shiny. Flat, uncreased spine. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a library discard. NOT a remainder. Pages are crisp, clean and unmarked. From the author: "This is the history of my family, spanning several generations. Their stories encouraged me to write these memoirs. When young men were leaving Transylvania by the thousands. Once Transylvania was a part of Hungary, but now is the possession of Romania. The men were either seeking asylum from ethnic persecution or seeking to provide a future for their families. There was a brief period of calm between the time of the Hungarian Revolution, the plague of 1918, and World War 1. Joseph Melics got caught up in the fervor of emigrating to seek a better life for his young family. Leaving his pregnant wife and his daughter, he left with their blessing. It was a dangerous risk. It would be his last chance knowing that there would soon be another war. Leaving everything he knew and loved, he immigrated to Canada with $25 in his pocket. Two years later he was reunited with wife, Elizabeth and daughter Margaret. He never had the opportunity to see his youngest daughter, Sari who died in infancy. Another war was looming. It was now or never.". Signed by the Author (her signature only). First Edition (so stated). Softcover. Fine condition. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 348pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Store description

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
