The Wayfarers Mr. Don Hereshon of the Florida branch of the Jewish Genealogical Society suggested that we contact you concerning our publication of Stuart Tower's epic historical novel The Wayfarers.
From 1894 to 1912, more than 2.5 million impoverished souls emigrated out of Europe with most finding their way to the land of freedom: America! This novel is the story of the Fusgeyers (literally 'those who went by foot'), groups of young Jewish men and women who literally marched from their native homes in Romania and the Settlement of the Pale across a deeply divided Europe to the seaports on the Atlantic and then on to America. Their story is little known but offers inspiration and hope to anyone who is suffering impoverisment, lack of political freedom or government sanctioned discrimination. We would like to see The Wayfarers added to your recommended list of "must reads" and will gladly send you a complimentary copy for your perusal. Your recommendation would go a long way in giving the Jewish population of the world a new insight into their past history and of where many have their roots and ancestry. The Wayfarers by Stuart F. Tower, ISBN 1-932211-02-0, 6" X 9", 596 pp, Trade Paper, $20 U.S. Please advise if you are interested in receiving a copy, and we thank you in advance for your time and consideration of our request.
