George was 12 years old when he and his family were taken from their home in Hungary and deported to Auschwitz. George recounts experiences in one of the worst places humans ever created, how he learned and used survival skills, skills that he later applied to building his business . Following his liberation from Auschwitz George made his way back to his home town of Szikszo, Hungary. He remained there for a few years and then made his way to Canada as part of the Orphans' Project. He arrived in Canada in 1948 with nothing in his pockets but his hands. George settled in Montreal and accomplished a great deal. He became a world class wrestler; he competed in international events and became the flag bearer for the Canadian team at the Maccabiah games in 1957--less than ten years after arriving in Canada. George started working immediately upon his arrival in Canada; his first job was at the Richstone Bakery. After working at a number of jobs which included working at the tobacco harvest on a farm in Ontario, George found his calling in the furniture business. He formed his own company, Jaymar Furniture, which became a leading manufacturer and a company which still operates successfully in Quebec. Wrestling With Life is a moving account of a child's survival under the most difficult of circumstances. It tells the story of one man's hard-won success as a businessman and an athlete who also devoted himself to philanthropy."--|cProvided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 10 Reinitz, George,|d1932-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2018164335 647 7 Jewish Holocaust|d(1939-1945)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/958866 648 7 1939-1945|2fast 650 0 Jews|zHungary|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008106106 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)|zHungary|vPersonal narratives.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2008105727 650 0 Holocaust survivors|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85061527|zQuébec (Province)|zMontréal|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80132975-781|vBiography. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 0 Businesspeople|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh96010352|zQuébec (Province)|zMontréal|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80132975-781|vBiography. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 0 Wrestlers|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85148612|zQuébec (Province)|zMontréal|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80132975-781|vBiography. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 0 Philanthropists|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85100740|zQuébec (Province)|zMontréal|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80132975-781|vBiography. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001237 650 7 Jews.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/983135 650 7 Holocaust survivors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 958838 650 7 Businesspeople.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/842980 650 7 Wrestlers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1181572 650 7 Philanthropists.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1060593 651 7 Hungary.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1205132 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Personal narratives.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1423843 655 7 Autobiographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919894 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026047 655 7 Personal narratives.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/genreForms/gf2014026142 700 1 King, Richard,|d1945-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/no2018165932|eauthor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9780773551831|w(can)20179024205 830 0 Footprints series (Montréal, Quebec) ;|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/names/no2005089753|v25. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1564665|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
