Twentieth-Century Janissary

Book excerpt: Although not entirely a happy memoir, this book looks back on the author’s life with a dash of humor. It reminds the author of his mostly painful yet rewarding challenges while growing up, and being a Greek orphan. In this book, he states that his life had an enormous toll on him, leaving deep scars that are diffi cult to heal. However, this story is not merely about the author’s life. It also contains several universal themes about childhood, adoption, how to raise children, and more. Touching and enlightening at the same time, Twentieth-Century Janissary: An Orphan’s Search For Freedom, Family, and Heritage also invites the younger generation of Greeks to cherish their heritage and legacy. This book is available in trade paperback, trade hardback, and eBook formats. For more information, interested parties may log on to www.Xlibris.com.
