Based on true experiences, a boy is launched into adulthood working as a busboy in his family's hotel in the heart of the Catskills.




Book Synopsis



In He Lost it in the Catskills, author Jerry Greenfield takes us back to the final years of the so-called "Borscht Belt" -- the area in the mountains just north of New York City that was, for generations, a haven for Jewish summer resort hotels and bungalow colonies. It was also the region that launched the careers of many famous comedians and singers. As a child, Jerry spent all his summers at the bungalow adjoining Rubel's Mansion... the hotel once owned by his mother's family. He came of age as a busboy and waiter in several Borscht Belt hotels over the course of ten years. This story is based on his experiences, the friends he found, and the innocence he lost coming of age in this legendary (and now bygone) region.
