This is a riveting collective memoir, which is both incredibly personal and yet tremendous in scope, and all profits will be donated to the Los Angeles Museum of the Holocaust. This book is written by a Holocaust survivor and is based on her own harrowing experiences, as well as the diary of a young girl. The author interviewed hundreds of the residents of her city after the war and put together this powerful, historic vivid account of how the Nazis occupied her hometown in Poland and systematically tormented and killed thousands of the city's Jews. Starting with Hitler's orders and the Nazi Occupation, the author describes how day to day life changed for everyone around her. Simple routines and joys taken away day by day, but the struggle to survive was strong. From the overcrowding of the ghetto, to lack of food and water to the deportations to concentration camps, work camps and death camps of the Holocaust, the author details it all. This remarkable book honors the strength, hope and bravery of those who strove to survive the horrors of World War II. Compelling details and dozens of historic photos make this book an enduring document of truth.
