Reseña del libro "Of the Same Blood: Your Eurasian Heritage - My Personal Story (en Inglés)"
"Of the Same Blood" tells a personal story of struggle and survival in a family that merged two strong, but diverse cultures, endured extreme challenges, and rose victorious from the ashes. Marjorie Rowe Gulumian wanted her grandchildren to know their backgrounds so they could grow and evolve. She said, "The more we know, the more we are aware of how little we actually know." Her wisdom provides great perspective and offers hope in a world still filled with too much hatred and ignorance. As history swiftly turns its pages, her personal story captures a time capsule of life's drama and mystery. Her experiences define dedication to family, communication, and work ethic as she personally relates her history to her family. In each story, she pours her passion and memories into her words to pass on her Life's wisdom to current and future generations. Now her granddaughter, Cathy Burnham Martin, revives Marjorie's stories and memories, illuminating her beliefs that family comes first and that we can do anything and be anything we chose. Marjorie was right about that and much more. She never thought of herself as remarkable. She was wrong about that. Her inspiration lives forever as a shining example of the positive, unwavering strength of human character. Marjorie moved from privilege to poverty. Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, her parents disowned her for marrying a foreigner. As a young boy, Marjorie's husband had witnessed unspeakable atrocities and held his mother's hand as she ran with him over Mount Ararat to escape massacre by sword-wielding Turks. Together, they struggled through the Great Depression, raising three babies in a third floor walk-up apartment with no running water. They endured, emerged, and evolved victorious, showering their world with loving motivation.
