    About this ebook

    "Elijah's Coins" is a historical fiction story in which the biblical Elijah appears in more recent times to grant those who wish the ability to change the course of their lives. A beggar sits on a street in Warsaw with his hand out for coins. Two people answer the request. Then fate intervenes and the two are offered a choice. Generations later the beggar appears again to their descendants. Do these people have the wisdom to choose what is right for them? Or will they accept what the beggar has to offer?

    If you wish to read the entire collection, either in print or in electronic format, look up "Ancient Tales, Modern Legends" in which "Elijah's Coins" is one of the stories. If you wish to pick specific stories, just look for the "One Story @ A Time Series" connected to Ted Gross or Ted William Gross.

    Ted Gross

    Ted Gross was born and raised in Manhattan, New York City and in 1978, moved to Israel, and currently resides in Jerusalem. In 2002, Ted as a reserve battlefield medic ended up in Jenin, and the battles that took place there became front-page news all over the world and the book (as of yet unpublished) "Three Weeks In Jenin" is a graphic experience of what was experienced in this village during that time. "Ancient Tales, Modern Legends" is a collection of short stories which were written over a period of many years Ted's love of the short story art-form is apparent in this book. His early reading was greatly influenced by I.B. Singer, O'Henry, Cheever and Vonnegut. He currently is working on the "Chronicles of the Children of Heaven" (a fantasy work) which the first Volume "A Tale That Is Told - Part 1" has been released on Kindle and in Paperback. A second collection of short stories is to be released as well. Over the years short stories by Ted have been published in various venues. "A Pot Of Gold" was recently published by Istoria Books (in their "Lunch Reads 4) with excellent reviews and is available on all electronic devices as well.
