Through a Boy's Eyes: The Turbulent Years 1926-1945

by Louis Posner

A card had been slid under the door. Its face carried a big Gestapo seal. I turned it over to read the printing and the handwriting underneath. It was an official invitation to visit Gestapo headquarters "without fail" within three days. Such an invitation was no small matter; I'd have to give this considerable thought.
Through a Boy's The Turbulent Years 1926-1945 chronicles a young man's experience in surviving Europe's darkest era. His "invitation" led to a work camp imprisonment, a daring escape from a transport train, six months as a fugitive, his recapture, and his eventual internment at Auschwitz until his liberation by the Soviets.

I had the incredible opportunity of meeting this author. The book is nicely done, a compelling story, and another must read in Holocaust literature.
