Coles A Stitch In Time: My Father's Journey To Freedom at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
David Gellis' journey to freedom is a chronological collection of stories highlighting how he escaped Poland under a brutal Russian regime. It was not an easy task: He had to hide in a basement in constant fear of being conscripted into the Russian Army at age sixteen. When that no longer became feasible, he ran away, relying on his ability and creative talents as a tailor to survive. A Stitch in Time spans from 1924 to 1947 and covers personal and world events that occurred during that time: Gellis' illegal entries into England, France, Cuba, and United States the rise of Nazism, events in Cuba during his time there, the Great Depression, and World War II. His drive to survive was fueled by his mother's plea for him to find his brother in the United States. She dreamed of a day when he could stop hiding and focus on chasing his dreams. The survival of David Gellis is a testimony to those who can rightly claim to be in the Greatest Generation.
