About

Surviving Hitler is the powerful story of Jack Mandelbaum, who as a teenager was torn from life of warmth and family love, to spend three horrific years in a concentration camp. Vintage photographs, effective design and engrossing narrative introduce the reader to a man, who still refuses to be consumed by hate, choosing instead to live a life of tolerance and forgiveness.
