Description: "Israel J. Rosengarten's memoir begins with his deportation in 1942 to the Belgian concentration camp of Breendonk at the age of sixteen and follows his movements through a series of camps until 1945. This compelling account concludes with the Auschwitz death march, liberation by the Americans, and the author's return to Belgium, only to discover that he was the lone survivor of a family of seven.".

"Translated into English for the first time, this book is the intimate story of a teenage boy in the concentration camps of the Holocaust. Rosengarten writes with no historical pretension beyond the insight that his own experience provides about everyday life and the horrors of the camps."--BOOK JACKET.
