. Around the period of 1907, the Jews were being persecuted by the Russians and the Poles. As a young lad of twelve years of age, my uncle was told by his father that. "He would have to leave his Country his village and his family." So Max set off to walk to London from Poland to meet up with his uncle Chem. The journey took him almost two years. This is based on a true story. I have used my imagination as to what may have occurred to him on this somewhat strange and daring adventure.
