520    $a Unstoppable is the story of an American heroa man who survived the hell of Auschwitz to become one of the most successful, mesmerizing, and outrageous personalities in postwar America. Siggi Wilzig was a force of nature: a Holocaust survivor who arrived in New York penniless and without formal education at just twenty one years old yet went on to build a $4 billion oil-and-banking empire. This is the ultimate immigrant story, an epic rags-to-riches adventure that follows Siggi from starvation on death marches to dinner at the White Housea story that starts in Auschwitz and ends with one of the most lucrative bank sales in Wall Street history. A survivors saga in a category of its own, Unstoppable does not dwell on tragedy, but instead celebrates Siggis ingenuity, hope, resolve and message: no matter how cruel or unjust the world may be, humans can overcome the past to achieve a bright future.
