Leon Zawadzki is a retired soldier. Above all, he is also the son of an immigrant with a story to tell. From childhood onwards, "Leon Zawadzki" attracted different shades of racism and prejudice, leading him to ponder, "What's in a name?" Putting pen to paper to tell his story, the realisation that he has lived this question through different experiences while growing up, later on in the British Army and upon his return to being a civilian dawns on him. Through the making and loss of history, there are multitudes of individuals whose stories remain unknown. Leon Zawadzki's journey and international experiences, immersion in, and close contact with history, has attuned his understanding of a world that is constantly changing, of decisions being taken and lives altered. For many, these journeys have spelled endings.He realises with introspection, that the immigrant's identity has never left him.

This autobiographical journey is a multi-dimensioned narrative encompassing a number of distinct though interwoven themes. It is a coming of age story of a boy (Raj) from an obscure small town in India born and raised in an orthodox Hindu family. It is a love story that spans distant continents and different cultures. It is a story of a mixed race and cross-cultural marriage played out in the East and the West. It is a commentary about the history and culture of the people and places the protagonist encounters over the journey and the times he lives through. Finally, it is the story of a well-educated man who is frustrated and disheartened because he is unable to find professional fulfillment in his country of birth, and reluctantly looks to the West for better opportunities, where he finally succeeds in salvaging his moribund professional career and in earning the recognition he deserves. The narrative would tickle the imagination of readers; it would enhance their understanding of diverse cultures and it would nudge them to empathize with the protagonists dilemmas as he navigates through the social and cultural landscapes of the East and the West.

In this book, while the author is translating his father's Greek manuscripts written some thirty years ago, he describes life, suffering, and struggle to survive in the cruel world of the twentieth century. His father and mother both born in Greek cities of Asia Minor escaped the Turkish brutality and the Hellenic Holocaust of 1916 to 1922. They came to Greece in 1922 and survived the difficult and inhumane conditions of the refugee settlements. There they met, were married some time in 1935, and after losing their first child to poverty and conditions unfit to human dignity, they brought to this world in 1937 the author of this book, who was followed by seven other children. The author and five of the siblings are still alive today.

Son of an Immigrant tells the true story of some individuals who lived in perhaps the most rapidly changing and inspiring decades of human history. The arrival of the car, the airplane, telephone, camera and penicillin-all phenomena that went from not existing to being completely adopted in a very short time. In addition, these individuals where a part of what might be the largest migration in human history, the population shift at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries to America. The main character in the story is my great-grandfather Cornelis Treur, who traveled as a young man with the love of his youth and her family to America. His letters to his family back home are the main theme in the book. In order to give the letters an extra dimension, Cornelis's stories as an individual are set within the context of the rapidly changing world of his time. Cornelis writes about his experiences on the great progress in America but also about his concerns as the outbreak of ' The Great War '. After struggling for a few years he is finally living the 'American Dream' until the Spanish flu also reached the North American village Williamstown. The great thing about the history of an individual is that it is only seldom politically colored or censored in later years

In the early 20th century, humanity made the biggest changes to its existence- the invention of the automobile, the airplane, and many medical devices, among others. In this time, when it seemed that all mankind was capable of great things, Cornelis Treur lived. Raised in a Dutch village, he decided to leave everything behind at a young age and go through the great crossing towards a new continent. The story is based on letters he sent home and it is also grounded in context of the then-rapidly changing world. He tells his family about the differences between America and his homeland. He works hard to achieve his dream, like millions of other immigrants that time. Derk Boswijk (1989) is a young entrepreneur with a keen interest in history. In this book, he describes the special history of his family.

Through circumstances out his control after unexpected events of his life the child goes on a quest to fi nd himself and discovers so much more. The journey is on going.
