From an early age I was "fascinated" with the holocaust.  It is a terrible part of our history, and I am amazed at the survivors of this tragedy.  I really enjoyed reading this personal account of running and surviving during this time.  Rabbi Cywiak's story is well told.  He doesn't gloss over things, but he also doesn't try to claim knowledge of what it was like for those who did end up in the concentration camps.  His story gave me new insight into what it was like to be a Jew in that time, and some new insights into being Jewish in general.  I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in history in general, or specifically those who would like information about what it was like to be a Jew during WWII.
