June 27, 2011 – Alexandria, VA — While in the Washington, D.C. area for her Institute of World Politics presentation, Alice Waydenfeld Faintich was invited that same evening to present her father’s book, The Ice Road: An Epic Journey from the Stalinist Labor Camps to Freedom, at April Burke-Lewis’ book group in near-by Alexandria, VA.

With eight women in attendance, all of whom had copies of the book, this intimate setting provided a perfect opportunity for a stimulating and thoughtful exchange of information, ideas and reactions.
