I'm Glad I Got This Far - Paperback

by Menno Ratzker (Author)

In this, his candid-and at times, highly comical-memoir, Menno Ratzker takes us on the journey of a lifetime. From his early years, hidden from the Nazis by the Dutch underground, through his career as a globe-trotting trader of metal commodities, Menno delivers an intimate and insightful portrait of a life well-lived. His story demonstrates how a strong work ethic results in professional success and how a devotion to one's family produces unparalleled joy and nachas. Ultimately, such blessings developed within in him a strong sense of gratitude that is manifested by his lifelong work as a synagogue lay leader and a humanitarian philanthropist in behalf of such organizations as the Shaare Tzedek Hospital in Israel. After reading this inspiring and irreverent chronicle you will understand why Menno Ratzker proclaims "I'm Glad I Got This Far." And, at that point, you will be glad as well.
