On February 3, in the frigid winter of 1923, the Lituania arrives in Boston without announcment or fanfare on the deck. Among the immigrants on board are brothers Jacov and Reuven Sidowitz and their mother Ida. This is their story of survival, stuggling in the new world and how with the help of heir family they created a huge shoe industry and learned union politics, and the fun of eating bagels, enjoying burlesque and girls. Understand the time period World War II, the depression and follow their journeys. Each one seeking something else and the end result will surprise readers. Join me with author Janet S. Kleinman.
