Winner of Best of Los Angeles Award "Best Holocaust Book - 2021"

“A must-read that hopefully will be adapted for the screen. Greene lets Wilzig’s effervescent spirit shine through, and his story will appear to a wide variety of readers.” (Library Journal)

Unstoppable is the ultimate immigrant story and an epic David-and-Goliath adventure. While American teens were socializing in ice cream parlors, Siggi was suffering beatings by Nazi hoodlums for being a Jew and was soon deported along with his family to the darkest place the world has ever known: Auschwitz. Siggi used his wits to stay alive, pretending to have trade skills the Nazis could exploit to run the camp. After two death marches and near starvation, he was liberated from camp Mauthausen and went to work for the US Army hunting Nazis, a service that earned him a visa to America. On arrival, he made three vows: to never go hungry again, to support the Jewish people, and to speak out against injustice. He earned his first dollar shoveling snow after a fierce blizzard. His next job was laboring in toxic sweatshops. From these humble beginnings, he became president, chairman, and CEO of a New York Stock Exchange-listed oil company and grew a full-service commercial bank to more than four billion dollars in assets.

Siggi’s ascent from the darkest of yesterdays to the brightest of tomorrows holds sway over the imagination in this riveting narrative of grit, cunning, luck, and the determination to live life to the fullest.

I have read many books about the Holocaust and grew up among many survivor families, but Siggy is the survivor I feel that I know the best and we never met. His remarkable skills in business were astounding. The book is very well written and the performance was perfect. I am so glad that I listened to this audible book.

This is the most remarkable biography I have ever read.

A remarkable biography of someone I never heard of but will remain in my heart . I thought I had read enough Holocaust books but seeing this advertisement in Saturday Book Review of NYT l ordered it from audible . You won’t want to put it down , even the first part which is all Holocaust memories , the narrator is superb & stimulates u on .
Highly recommend this to listen or read , u won’t be disappointed & adds to the saying Never Forget !!
