Tracking the Holocaust

By Gerda Haas

Gerda Haas has chosen eight stories--including her own story of survival--to represent the millions of lives devastated by the Holocaust. Skillfully interwoven with these moving and often shocking tales is the history of World War II itself. Haas meticulously traces Adolf Hitler's ruthless path of destruction through Europe. from Janusz Korczak's painful struggle in the Warsaw ghetto, to Leesha Rose's memories of working with anti-Nazi Resistance in Holland, to the amazing recollections of Fania Fenelon--a French singer whose musical talents helped her survive Auschwitz--each vignette sharply captures both the hope and horror of a time the world should never forget.
