About this listen
It's 1899. An illegal immigrant, Tony LaStoria, just 10 years old, an unaccompanied minor, the son of a tailor, lands in New York and then must make his way in the world's greatest city. Overcoming every crisis, Tony finds a partnership to last a lifetime in his friend Harry Spritzka, whose family, Jews from Vilna, are in the apparel trade. Manhattan, the island, is the Bangladesh of 1905. Seventy percent of all store-bought clothing in America is made in Manhattan. Together, in the wide-open, unregulated garment industry of that explosive time, the boys succeed in becoming teenage businessmen by the time they're 16. Harry plays the entrepreneur, Tony, his trusted floor-manager, and the only thing that can come between them is - a girl named Laura.
