A description of Werner Weinberg’s life during the Nazi period in Germany and then Holland, his imprisonment in Bergen-Belsen, and his unique personal reflections on his life after the war.

“Werner Weinberg’s story of his disrupted life as a Jewish teacher in small-town Germany, his deportation and amazing escape from his captors, and his critical reflections on his experience make this moving volume one of the most valuable personal accounts of the Holocaust.”
