by Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz (Author)

This book is a first person account of a young Poles' survival at the hands of the brutal Nazi Gestapo and his subsequent two years in Nazi concentration camps.

Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz was just 20 years old, engaged as a tutor in the Polish Underground School of the Tarnow area, when he was apprehended by the Gestapo. Mercilessly tortured for days, he refused to give the Germans any useful information, and nearly died protecting his comrades. After months of imprisonment and recovery from his tortures, young Zbigniew was transferred to the first of five concentration camps--Auschwitz! After this, on to Birkenau, then Buchenwald, and Mittelbau (DORA), and finally, Bergen-Belsen.

Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz recounts the horrors, the degradation, and the despair in the camps. He also tells of his deep faith in God and how total strangers stepped up and helped him survive this madness. This is a Holocaust story like no other!
