Descripción
This heart-wrenching memoir from a Holocaust survivor reveals the terrible realities of life in Auschwitz--and how a courageous young stable boy survived against all odds to tell his story.
"I couldn't last much longer. But just as I was beginning to give up, I found myself in the Auschwitz stables, with rows of stalls filled with horses."
Henry Oster was just five years old when Adolf Hitler took power in 1933. He was the last survivor of the 2,011 Jews who were rounded up by the Gestapo and deported from Cologne. Assigned to back-breaking labor in the Auschwitz horse-breeding stables, Henry clung to the belief that if he made himself hard to replace, he might stay alive.
Henry was one of the 2,011 Jews who were deported from Cologne, through it all, he found the strength to survive and was one of only 23 to emerge alive from the concentration camps after the war. How did one starving boy, alone and forgotten, survive this ultimate hell on earth? The Stable Boy of Auschwitz is the heart-breaking, mesmerizing, and unforgettable true story that will destroy your faith in humanity . . . and then build it back up again.Detalles
