  1. To pay tribute to the memory of the souls of our grandparents in the land of Historic Armenia, present turkey, I have yet to come to grips with the idea of flying turkish airlines, because it happens to be the least expensive. Realising that for some, convenience ups other considerations. Turkey continues to be the beneficiary economically and in every other way. Thank you Matthew Karanian. Another book for keeps. Copies to share with Turkish university libraries?
