Book Description
In the time between the First and Second World Wars, a young boy grows up in a small Polish town. Life has settled down after WWI, and the boy splits his time between helping run his father's bakery and going to school. However, as the Nazis slowly advance into Poland and the war begins, the boy is swept away to be a part of the workforce meant to build the Autobahn. Away from home for the first time, and too naive to comprehend the ramifications of the war, the boy is forced to grow up on his own in a very short amount of time in order to survive the ordeal that is now known as the Holocaust. Following his life through the war and the uncertainty of life after it, this book tells the true story of one man's life as he fights for survival. Now 91 years old, Jack Rath tells his story as he goes from being the baker's son to a survivor of one of the worst events in history.
