Determined to Survive
註釋In riveting detail, Max Steinmetz, Holocaust survivor, describes the journey from growing up in a small, Transylvania, Romanian town to the horrors of the Szaszregen ghetto, Auschwitz-Birkenau camp and killing center, Dachau concentration camp, slave labor sub-camps, a death march, and liberation by American soldiers. The story does not end there, as Steinmetz recounts the challenges and difficulties of rebuilding his life after the trauma and devasation of the Holocaust, and eventually coming to a place of being able to talk and share about his experiences. With a passion for Holocaust Education, Steinmetz and author, public high school teacher, Amy McDonald, work together to provide a factual, yet gripping emotional account of one survivor amidst the enormous and complex history of the Holocaust. As the time quickly approaches when there will be no living witnesses of the Holocaust, personal testimonies and historical accounts such as these become increasingly vital to ensuring that the lessons of the Holocaust and the legacies of its survivors are not forgotten.
