Diamonds and Demons The Joseph Gutnick Story - Softcover
A story of tenacity, luck, toughness - and controversy. Joseph Gutnick -known variously as Diamond Joe for his mining exploits, Demon Joe for his presidency of the AFL Melbourne Demons, and the Lubavitcher Rebbe's Special Emissary for the Integrity of the Land of Israel - is a fantastic mix of contradictions. One of Australia's wealthiest and most successful goldminers, Gutnick's involvement in Israel has earned him widespread condemnation, while he is also acknowledged as among the world's greatest Jewish philanthropists. This edition contains an entirely new chapter covering Gutnick's foray into Canada's mining industry, the 2001 Israeli election and the Demons startling successful season in 2000.
