Book Signing with Author Samuel Davis. At the beginning of the 20th Century, Syrian immigrant Joe Solomon arrived in the United States, and today his grandson, author Sam Davis, recounts his grandfather's life in his new country. The book also tracks the long and successful lives of Joe's 12 children and their immersion into American Culture. Enjoy an evening with Sam Davis as he discusses his book and shares stories of his family as they worked to achieve the American Dream.
