Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 Jacques Moscovici, the son of immigrants, was born in 1896 in Galatz, Romania. He was the youngest of three children. His older brother, Marcus, was born in 1890, and sister, Fannie, arrived in 1895. Their father, Jacob, was a second-generation tinsmith, but work had become scarce. Romania in the late 19th Century was one of several eastern European nations that had become perilous for Jews. #2 The Moscovici family left their homeland for the United States in 1900 when Jacques was four. They spent a number of weeks getting their papers in order for entry into the United States. They arrived in Buffalo, New York, in 1901. #3 The automobile industry was extremely fast-paced in the early 1900s. While the newer generation of mass-produced vehicles were now within the reach of millions more drivers, few of those buyers could pay cash for them. #4 Jack Mossler, who had come to America in 1900, married a local girl, Evelyn Mae Kizer, in 1918. The couple bought their first home in 1919. In 1930, with their fortunes rising, they moved into a larger home on Music Street in the 8th Ward. Their four daughters were born in 1930.
