Beschreibung
Based on more than 100 interviews in nine U.S. locations, the book offers a powerful view of survivors hope, determination, and resilience. Study questions elicited survival strategies, and revealed how, following the war, survivors overcame the horrors of the Holocaust, formed families, built careers, and gave to their communities. Survivor quotes taken from these interviews illuminate how the survivors maintained competence into old age.
