Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SEWING! NO ONE could hate it more than Dina Kirk. Endless tiny stitches, button holes, darts. Since she was tiny, she’s worked in her family’s dressmaking business, where the sewing machine is a cranky member of the family. When 13-year-old Dina leaves her small town in Germany to join her uncle’s family in Brooklyn, she turns her back on sewing. Never again! But looking for a job leads her right back to the sewing machine. Why did she ever leave home? Here she is, still with a needle and thread—and homesick to boot. She didn’t know she could be this homesick, but she didn’t know she could be so brave either, as she is standing up to an epidemic or a fire. She didn’t know she could grow so close to her new family or to Johann, the young man from the tailor’s shop. And she didn’t know that sewing would reveal her own wonderful talent—and her future. In Dina, the beloved writer Patricia Reilly Giff has created one of her most engaging and vital heroines. Readers will enjoy seeing 1870s Brooklyn through Dina’s eyes, and share her excitement as she discovers a new world.

Book Synopsis Measure of a Man by : Martin Greenfield
Download or read book Measure of a Man written by Martin Greenfield and published by Regnery Publishing. This book was released on 2014-11-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He's been called "America's greatest living tailor" and "the most interesting man in the world." Now, for the first time, Holocaust-survivor Martin Greenfield tells his whole, incredible life story. Taken from his Czechoslovakian home at age fifteen and transported to the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz with his family, Greenfield came face-to-face with "Angel of Death" Dr. Joseph Mengele and was divided forever from his parents, sisters, and baby brother. In haunting, powerful prose, Greenfield remembers his desperation and fear as a teenager alone in the death camp--and how an impulsive decision to steal an SS soldier's shirt dramatically altered the course of his life. He learned how to sew; and when he began wearing the shirt under his prisoner uniform, he learned that clothes possess great power and could even help save his life. Measure of a Man is the story of a man who suffered unimaginable horror and emerged with a dream of success. From sweeping floors at a New York clothing factory to founding America’s premier handmade suit company, Greenfield built a fashion empire. Now 86-years-old and working with his sons, Greenfield has dressed the famous and powerful of D.C. and Hollywood, including Presidents Dwight Eisenhower, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama and celebrities Paul Newman, Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Jimmy Fallon. Written with soul-baring honesty and, at times, a wry sense of humor, Measure of a Man is a memoir unlike any other--one that will inspire hope and renew faith in the resilience of man.

Book Synopsis It Took Nine Tailors by : Adolphe Menjou
Download or read book It Took Nine Tailors written by Adolphe Menjou and published by . This book was released on 2023-06-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It Took Nine Tailors is a story told in Adolphe Menjou's own voice that recounts life from his 1890 birth in Pittsburgh through days spent working in his father's restaurants and early travails breaking into the acting business right into detailed stories of breaking into movies and climbing the ladder to become a leading man. It was Menjou's mustache and a top hat rented for fifty cents that brought him his first part in the movies. Working with Douglas Fairbanks, Rudolph Valentino, Pola Negri, the immortals of early Hollywood, he made his special spot in that difficult town. The hilarity of silent pictures, the birth of the Hays office and the beginnings of the talkies provide a colorful background for the fantastic progress of the actor Adolphe Menjou. Woven throughout the book are accounts of his excursions into the realms of tailoring, as well as his own witty version of the peccadillos of Hollywood greatness. In his foreword, Clark Gable says of Menjou: 'In Hollywood, nothing less than sensational or colossal is considered worthy of recording. . . . Adolphe's nonstop career as an actor speaks for itself. He started in the business when any pictures over two reels in length was considered a super-special and he is still a leading film personality.' " From the book's original description: It took nine tailors and thirty-five years as Hollywood's beloved man-about-town to make Adolphe Menjou. Famous for his wardrobe and his wit, he has probably been associated with more popular moving pictures than any other actor in Hollywood. But the man and how he made his unique place in the picture world has never before been revealed. Here is his own story and the phenomenon of Hollywood, written with great humor and gusto in collaboration with M. M. Musselman, author of Wheels in His Head.
