March 13, 2011 - Nellysford, VA -- Alice Waydenfeld Faintich was the featured speaker at one of the Stoney Creek at Wintergreen book groups, discussing her father's book The Ice Road: An Epic Journey from the Stalinist Labor Camps to Freedom.

Accompanied by her multi-media PowerPoint presentation, Alice spoke about a little-known episode of World War II—the deportation by the Soviets of 1.5 million innocent Polish civilians to brutal forced labor camps in Siberia—bringing the larger story to life through her father's teenage experiences chronicled in his book.

The audience of both men and women were fascinated by this glimpse of a forgotten piece of history, and Alice's presentation was accompanied by lively discussion that continued into the reception that followed.
