商品簡介
Like many who lost relatives in the Holocaust, German Jew Adolph "Eddie" Weisz, who emigrated to the US in 1938, did not openly discuss his past or that of his parents. In this oral history by his uncle Keith Pickus (Wichita State U.), drawn on extensive interviews and letters, his story of despair at losing one family and hope in establishing another is finally presented. The memoir features photographs and an index. Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
