Book Details

From selling Christmas trees on street corners in Washington to becoming a multi-millionaire philanthropist, this is a success story of the son of immigrants who combined vision, risk-taking and a desire for perfection and became a leading restauranteur, businessman and world-class angler.

It is an example of how thousands, if not tens of thousands, of immigrant families have made major contributions to the culture and economy of the United States.

This is the true life legend of Peter Paul Boinis.
