Reviews: “Robert Jeschonek has done it again. He's given lovers of old-time Johnstown another novella to take us back to the days when department stores like Glosser's and Penn Traffic were bursting with women in dresses and nylon stockings scouring the aisles looking for bargains while toting happy children munching on warm nuts.” – Arlene Johns, Johnstown Magazine
