Two years later, police found a boy abandoned outside a variety store in New Jersey. The FBI tracked down Dora Fronczak, the kidnapped infant’s mother, and she identified the abandoned boy as her son. The family spent the next fifty years believing they were whole again—but Paul was always unsure about his true identity. Then, four years ago—spurred on by the birth of his first child, Emma Faith—Paul took a DNA test. The test revealed that he was definitely not Paul Fronczak. From that moment on, Paul has been on a tireless mission to find the man whose life he’s been living—and to discover who abandoned him, and why. Poignant and inspiring, The Foundling is a story about a child lost and a faith found, about the permanence of families and the bloodlines that define you, and about the emotional toll of both losing your identity and rediscovering who you truly are.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 213mmItem Length: 140mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 304gAuthor: Paul Joseph FronczakContributor: Alex Tresniowski (With)Genre: BiographyTopic: Music Dance & Theatre Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
