Great!!!! submitted by boocathy621 on June 15, 2019, 7:20pm A.vivid account of the holocaust. Very in depth memoir about Burgenthals life at that time. A very important book for everyone.
A Story of Hope submitted by andrea on July 23, 2019, 11:48pm This is an important memoir with an unusual perspective on history that is very relevant to the world today. It is hard to read about the atrocities experienced by this young boy, but it is ultimately a story of hope from a man who dedicated his life to human rights and justice.
