This is a spellbinding first-person account of a 13-year-old boy's desperate struggle to survive. In it, we share side by side with the author in his terrifying passage from boy to man, in his amazing courage & determination. David Faber, caught in the horror of the Nazi barbarity of torture, murder & death camps, somehow endures. With scarcely believable tenacity, he fulfills his promise to his murdered family that he will live to tell the story of what really happened. As Dr. Aaron S. Gold, Rabbi, Tifereth Israel Synagogue, says, "It is not the usual Holocaust story. It is...a thrilling account of a mystery which unfolds in exciting drama. The reader is taken on a roller coaster ride of suspense & adventure that can leave one breathless. Interwoven...are the fascinating experiences of his brother Romek, who worked...to frustrate the Nazi desire to build an atomic bomb..." The excruciating adventures of this young man often shock us. A historic reality we'd often like to forget crashes in on us, insisting that we remember what can happen. To make sure we do, this crisply written chronicle engages our deepest feelings on virtually every page.Faber, David is the author of 'Because of Romek: A Holocaust Survivor's Memoir' with ISBN 9780962349782 and ISBN 096234978X.
