Title: Commitment to the dead
Description: Helen Waterford, a Holocaust survivor who lectures about her experiences during World War II, has written a moving testament both to her will to survive and to her determination to live a life without bitterness for what she endured. Recalling her prewar life in Germany and Amsterdam, and her postwar life in the United States, as well as her imprisonment in Nazi camps, Waterford is unusual in her refusal to hate. She often lectures with a former fanatic Nazi, and together they attempt to educate young Americans about the horrors of the Holocaust. An important addition to Holocaust collections--Library Journal.
