ARTICLES & COMMENTS "We had a terrific presentation from Jeff Gorney on his book Mysterious Places. Great book and great program" --JGSCNY, ____________________________ Syracuse Post-Standard/Empire Magazine: CNY Page-Turners "When Jeffrey Gorney was a boy, his grandmother's stories all started the same way: 'When I was a little girl in Romania.' Her stories are part of what led the Syracuse writer to book his first trip to Romania in 1994. This book follows his decades-long journey to uncover his family's genealogy there." ________________________ syracuse.com, by Nicki Gorny "Discover more about Mysterious Places by Jeffrey Gorney, one of three Central New York books, at https.syracuse.Q0WnfLe. " _________________________________ Syracuse New Times, by Christopher Malone "A self-published author I follow is Kseola Anske. Her books took months to write/publish, and she wrote about her struggles. A few local authors, like Jeffrey Gorney (Mysterious Places).fit this well." AMAZON REVIEWS ***** Wonderful writer and gifted storyteller, Gorney weaves together childhood memories and hushed references to relatives he never knew and takes us on a fascinating voyage to find out who they were and what became of them in Romania. *****A must read!

A powerful book with powerful life lessons.

Warm, descriptive and enjoyable, beautifully written." ***** Take this journey of discovery Should be read by anyone who cares and wonders about the meaning of family.
