Book Description
Krakow, 1942. Willy Lermer was just 19 years old when he was forced to leave his family behind in Myslenice and was sent to work in the notorious Plaszow Labour Camp. Here, under the command of the vicious Nazi Amon Goth, he endured back-breaking labour, illness and starvation.But worse was yet to come. In 1944, Willy was deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau. He worked as a slave labourer for four gruelling months alongside the gas chambers and crematoria, surviving on a diet of clear soup and guard brutality. Finally, Willy was transferred to Dachau. When the Americans liberated the camp he was barely alive--weighing just 38 kilos. He had survived unspeakable atrocities, only to discover that his entire family had been murdered in Belzec death camp.From Hell to Salvation tells the story of one man's battle for survival amid the horrors of the Holocaust, and of the courage required to start a new life in the face of devastating loss. It is a testament to the enduring power of hope, and a poignant reminder of the threat racism poses to a civilised world.

Book Description
Winner of the Eisner, Harvey, and Ignatz Awards for Best Graphic Novel. A New York Times Bestseller! "Remarkable."-- Leo Carey, The New Yorker "... dark, fearsomely complex..."-- Douglas Wolk, Publishers Weekly "My all-time favorite graphic novel... an immense, majestic work about the Jack the Ripper murders, the dark Victorian world they happened in, and the birth of the 20th century."-- Warren Ellis, Entertainment Weekly "Moore's works have often defied the public's expectations of the medium, and his most ambitious work, the massive graphic novel From Hell, is no exception... The result is at once a meditation on evil, a police procedural and a commentary on Victorian England. ... an impressive piece of work."-- Patrick Day, The Los Angeles Times "... a massive exploration of the Jack The Ripper murders that incorporates British history, Masonic ritual, and London geography in a fascinating and horrifying conspiracy theory."-- Tasha Robinson, The AV Club From Hell is the story of Jack the Ripper, perhaps the most infamous man in the annals of murder. Detailing the events leading up to the Whitechapel killings and the cover-up that followed, From Hell is a meditation on the mind of a madman whose savagery and violence gave birth to the 20th century. The serialized story, presented in its entirety in this volume, has garnered widespread attention from critics and scholars, and has been adapted into a major motion picture from Twentieth Century Fox starring Johnny Depp and Heather Graham. Often regarded as one of the most significant graphic novels ever published, From Hell combines meticulous research with educated speculation, resulting in a masterpiece of historical fiction both compelling and terrifying.

Book Description
"Alfred Wetzler was a true hero. His escape from Auschwitz, and the report he helped compile, telling for the first time the truth about the camp as a place of mass murder, led directly to saving the lives of 120,000 Jews: the Jews of Budapest who were about to be deported to their deaths. No other single act in the Second World War saved so many Jews from the fate that Hitler and the SS had determined for them. This book tells Wetzler's story." · Sir Martin Gilbert "Wetzler is a master at evoking the universe of Auschwitz, and especially, his and Vrba's harrowing flight to Slovakia. The day-by-day account of the tremendous difficulties the pair faced after the Nazis had called off their search of the camp and its surroundings is both riveting and heart wrenching. [...] Shining vibrantly through the pages of the memoir are the tenacity and valor of two young men, who sought to inform the world about the greatest outrage ever committed by humans against their fellow humans." · [From Introduction by Dr Robert Rozett] Together with another young Slovak Jew, both of them deported in 1942, the author succeeded in escaping from the notorious death camp in the spring of 1944. There were some very few successful escapes from Auschwitz during the war, but it was these two who smuggled out the damning evidence – a ground plan of the camp, constructional details of the gas chambers and crematoriums and, most convincingly, a label from a canister of Cyclone gas. The present book is cast in the form of a novel to allow factual information not personally collected by the two fugitives, but provided for them by a handful of reliable friends, to be included. Nothing, however, has been invented. It is a shocking account of Nazi genocide and of the inhuman conditions in the camp, but equally shocking is the initial disbelief the fugitive’s revelations met with after their return.

Book Description
This book is a memoir of one Christian man's struggle to survive the ultimate form of suffering when he realized it was God causing his suffering. After growing beyond the lifestyle of his immigrant parents, his life collapsed watching his wife die untimely at age fifty-two. Death of a spouse is rated the highest stressor on the Holmes-Rahe scale of stress, a primary predictor of pending illness related to losses and other life changes. Although the resulting grief is considered to be a normal human reaction, it can be life-threatening. Unless you have watched your spouse die, it is almost impossible to explain in words how it makes you feel. When the traditional faith of his family provided no comfort, he searched for a new belief that could make life worth living when it seemed there was no reason to go on. Although he was a deacon and Sunday school teacher, this widower had to reach beyond the church to find a pathway through depression to serenity and contentment when his traditional life was destroyed. In our culture, widowers are expected to absorb their loss and to go on with life as though nothing happened. He wants readers to know that something great happened and how it changed his life. His struggle to live when life was not worth living led him through career challenges, loves and losses on the way to discovery of a new belief system that accommodates the world as it is. His journey to recovery may be unusual and his conclusion may be shocking, but it could help other widowers to know there can be resurrection from hell.

Book Description
Smooth Sailing From Hell is a memoir that tells the harrowing tale of my family's experiences during World War II and its aftermath, from the horrors of the Holocaust to the oppression of the Soviet Union, and beyond. At the heart of this story is our steadfast determination to escape Soviet Russia and fulfill our destiny in the newly created State of Israel, the safe haven for Jews worldwide. After narrowly surviving the unimaginable brutality of Hitler's Final Solution, my parents-both soldiers in the Soviet Red Army-battled yet another harsh dictator: Joseph Stalin. I was born into this oppressive environment and as a young child experienced the unrelenting fear, harassment, and degrading living conditions. At different times, both of my parents were arrested and detained under the threat of imminent execution. Through an extraordinary series of events, my family was among the few Jewish families to escape the Soviet Union, by way of Poland and its numerous Displaced Persons camps, while awaiting departure permits for Israel. Through sheer will and a burning desire to reach our promised land, we survived and built a new life for ourselves. Our journey motivated me to become a passionate activist, with a mission to secure the rights and freedoms of Soviet Jews who were languishing in the giant prison of the Soviet Union.
