    			  I never realized how screwy the Mormon fundamentalist are, expecially those who continue to amass dozens of wives, after legally marrying one, and then have Human Services and welfare support the medical needs of the rest of the flock. Unbelievable.

    			  Decent read.  Coffee table book where 4 newspaper writers and photographers hike and then retell about a different section of the AT.  Really good photos.  Actual details from those who walked it.

<span id="freeTextreview_rating74271253" style="display:none" class="reviewText">I'm so glad that I noticed this on the shelf at the library.  This is definitely the most unique book I've ever read about the Holocaust and probably the most emotional for me.  I'm not sure if it was the depictions or if it was literally seeing through the eyes of Vladek, who is curmudgeonly and stubborn, and so matter-of-fact when telling his story.  The horrors are extremely vivid here and I struggled along with Art to digest both Vladek himself and his experiences.  I think this story within a story approach worked extremely well here.<br/><br/>Themes: history, WW2, religion, tragedy, father and son, memoir/interview, holocaust, story within a story<br/><a href="#" onclick="Element.hide('freeTextreview_rating74271253'); Element.show('freeTextContainerreview_rating74271253'); return false;">(less)</a></span>
