From Siberia to America

Many Polish Jews who survived the Holocaust fled to the Soviet Union, where they were subjected to appalling suffering and oppression under the Communist regime. "Surviving Siberia and Thriving Under Capitalism" is a memoir of one man who survived the Nazi threat and Siberian deportation, returned to an anti-Semitic Poland after the war, and moved to the United States, where he became a highly successful entrepreneur and businessman. This engrossing autobiography traces Boruch B. Frusztajer's life from his traumatic childhood in Nazi-occupied Poland to his involvement in the early development of the computer industry in England and eventual career as an entrepreneur in the United States. Frusztajer reveals how qualities he nurtured in the Soviet work camps - persistence, self-confidence, and the ability to cooperate with others - informed his later business ventures. Boruch B. Frusztajer's remarkable life story is one of meaning and accomplishment in the face of tremendous obstacles.
