Description

The story of Murray Goldman (aka Moe Fields) is a deep dive into the experiences of one man...and how his fighting spirit and perseverance saved his family and inspired his three sons to succeed. Moe Fields personifies the hard scrabble life of growing up during the Great Depression - from his teens as a Golden Gloves boxer, to his career as a Bootleg fighter in Brooklyn, to being a WWII sailor whose most prideful moment was singled out by FDR, to a self-made man who built a large plumbing business in New Jersey. His partner in life, Frannie Goldman was cut from the same cloth. An athlete and sax player who toured the Catskills in an all-women's band. Theirs was a Depression era love story. Sacrifice and determination were no strangers to either of them. A drunk driver causes a horrific car accident putting Murray and Fanny in the hospital for months and leaving them to deal with lifetime disabilities. For their three young sons who were 'home alone' without supervision, the accident and its aftermath stole their childhoods and changed the lives of their family forever. In this painful time of Covid, Moe Fields is a life affirming story for readers looking to find books that celebrate the strength of family, faith-and the enduring legacy of love parents give us to guide our journey in life. A story about the unbreakable bond between fathers and sons.
