"In these pages, David Bruce Smith offers us this charming memory of his remarkable grandfather - a Russian Jew who immigrated to America in 1911 and built the Charles E. Smith real estate empire. David's memories subtly reveal the wisdom of a man who could turn problems into opportunities, a man who symbolized that great generation of turn-of-the century immigrants who made such a vital contribution to the "American Century.""
