Risk, Resilience, and Redemption: A Miraculous Holocaust Survival Story
Risk, Resilience, and Redemption: A Miraculous Holocaust Survival Story
by Frank W. Baker
ISBN: 979-8-9986981-3-2
What is it like to have lived through six years of Holocaust slave labor and survive?
Bluma Tishgarten and Felix Goldberg were torn from their families and communities and cast into Hell... Adolf Hitler was the devil that presided over Germany's descent into madness and led the Nazis in their murderous march across Europe and beyond from 1939 to 1945. Despite not knowing if their friends and neighbors and their families were still alive, the two young Polish Jews struggled through the grueling conditions of near-starvation and slave labor as well as torture and terror with only the faint glimmer of hope as their beacon leading them to survival.
They found each other. They found a life together and they found their way to America. This is their miraculous story of their trials and tribulations... of the risks they took, the resilience to persevere, and their ultimate redemption.
