Bau does a fantastic job at making such a horrific event so real ...By Anna JefferyJoseph Bau pulls on his actual experiences as a Jew during World War II in Germany. His ability to make you feel as though you are actually there with him experiencing things the way he did. It's hard to portray uncomprehending experiences; yet he finds a way to pull you into the book. It took me longer than usual to read this book because of all of the hardships endured and the idea that a whole country could treat a group of people the way they did just because of their beliefs. Bau does a fantastic job at making such a horrific event so real and makes you feel. I would highly recommend this memoir to anyone who enjoys a good read.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Good book!By KYWomanBook itself is humorous; enlightening and inspiring.Joseph uses humor and art to cope with one of the most horrific episodes in history.His wife Rebecca is nothing short of heroic; constantly defying death and demons like the infamous Dr. Mengela.Against all odds; Joseph and Rebecca find each other in a Polish concentration camp.(Their marriage and efforts were featured in the Spielberg film "Schindler's List."Not only do they survive but thrive in Tel Aviv; living long enough to testify at the Nazi war trials in Vienna.Joseph; later known as the "Walt Disney of Israel;" became an invaluable component in the beginning of Mossad; helping to bring more Nazi criminals to justice.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. WOWBy ScarlettI had the pleasure of taking several of my students to see Schindler's Factory in Europe last summer; and we met the daughter of the author of this book. I finally bought the book last week and read it on the way to another trip with students. They all made a list of who gets to read it next since they asked me about it and I told them how great it was.This book brings the horrors of the Holocaust to life in a very personal way. An easy read for students and adults...it is hard to put down. I really recommend this book; and not just because I am a history teacher.
