Immigrant in America

Growing up under communist rule, Professor Nickolas Johann Raderick faced many injustices and frustrations. In this autobiography, he shares some of his life stories from growing up in Romania.

Through his schooling, work, and travel, Raderick encountered pressure and threats from the communists to join the party.

After leaving Romania, he endured deplorable circumstances in refugee camps before being able to come to America. Upon arriving in the United States, he overcame many obstacles before becoming established in his new home. Raderick decided to marry a woman from Ukraine after having a terrible hunting accident and ending a troublesome marriage.
