About this title

Synopsis

Michael Edelstein was headstrong and independent, a self-described mamzer. He was 10 years old when he rolled under the barbed wire and escaped the roundup of the Jewish townspeople of Skala-Podolsk on the morning of Sukkoth 1942... Now in his twilight years, Edelstein relates his full life history. From his Holocaust ordeal in the forests and bunkers, to the purgatory of post-war Poland and Germany, to his early years in the U.S. as a Korea-era GI and self-made small businessman, to his ultimate successes in real estate and philanthropy, Edelstein fills his narrative with richly remembered details and characteristic Yiddish outlook. All publishing proceeds from this book will be donated to Colel Chabad.

About the Authors

Michael Edelstein overcame all odds to survive the Holocaust in western Ukraine and to rebuild his life in his adopted homeland of America. Together with his wife, Florence, Michael built a boom- ing roofing business, and later achieved great success as an owner- manager of New York residential real estate. Michael and Florence Edelstein maintain a philanthropic foundation that donates millions of dollars to Israel and Jewish causes.

Long-time international Jewish journalist Walter Ruby organizes and advocates for interfaith dialogue. Former tech journalist Dan Ruby is an online content innovator and historical researcher. Their mutual interest in Holocaust history led them to join together with Michael Edlestein to bring his inspiring life story to the world.
