<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"If Martin Baranek's memoir of his hellish journey were fiction, I would dismiss it as<br /> beyond comprehension. The fact that in this book Martin's own words testify in some<br /> detail to his experiences from ghetto to work camp to extermination camps to death<br /> march to liberation and eventual arrival to the Land of Israel, powerfully teaches us that<br /> the unbelievable actually happened. This is an eye opening window into humanity at its<br /> lowest and cruelest. It is also one human being's intense will to survive and rebuild his<br /> life anew. I found it riveting and gut wrenching. Martin Baranek's journey is a triumph<br /> of hope over despair."</p><p>--Rabbi Gary Glickstein</p><p> </p><p>"I first encountered Martin Baranek as an articulate and reflective survivor in the course<br /> of my research on the Wierzbnik ghetto and the Starachowice slave labor camps. As<br /> his powerful memoir records, these were but the first two circles of Hitler's inferno<br /> through which he descended in the years of the Holocaust. They were followed by<br /> Birkenau, Mauthausen, and Gunskirchen, with each stage of his incredible odyssey<br /> more challenging and horrifying than the previous one. Martin's overall story remains<br /> very powerful."</p><p>--Christopher R. Browning, Frank Porter Graham Professor of History Emeritus, <br /> University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill</p><p> </p><p>"It has been said that a thousand doors had to open and close in the exact right time<br /> and succession in order for one to survive the Holocaust. If even one door opened or<br /> closed at the wrong time, your fate was sealed. Unlike 6 million other Jews, the<br /> doors Martin Baranek went through appeared for him at just the right time. But<br /> his survival was not just a matter of luck. Shining through on every page of this<br /> exceptionally moving tale are Martin's courage, perseverance and sheer will to live<br /> under the most brutal of conditions This painfully honest account is a true testament to<br /> the power of the human spirit to triumph over unimaginable adversity. Martin' story is a<br /> remarkable memoir that is nothing short of inspiring.You may have questions about<br /> God after reading this book - but you will most certainly believe in miracles."</p><p>--Eli Rubenstein, National Director, March of the Living Canada</p><p> </p><p>"...This is a fascinating chronicle of the Holocaust by an amazing man who shares the<br /> tale of his painful tragedy and the triumph of his survival against all odds. We are<br /> privileged that Martin has shared his story with countless participants of the March of<br /> the Living that will pass on his message of NEVER FORGET to future generations..."</p><p>--Mel Mann, Executive Director - Friends of the March of the Living, Miami, FL<br /> </p>
