When Napoleon and his army staggered through on their retreat from Moscow in , they were watched anxiously by two young brothers, Zalmon and Avrom, ancestors of the Shifrin family. Around the turn of the century many Shifrins emigrated to the New World in search of better lives. Others remained in Europe. Geoff Sifrin is a great-great-great-grandson of Zalmon. These stories trace generations of Sifrins from to , providing glimpses into their lives in Europe, South Africa and the USA.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers.
