Of Blood And Hope

Of Blood and Hope

My father, a survivor of the death camps (Auschwitz, Buchenwald), proclaimed this biography as the most accurate he has read. Having read countless stories, my father found Pisar's portrayal of not only what happened in the camps, but their effect on survivors both during and after the war as honest and true reflections of his experience.Although portions of the subject matter (Soviet Union) are now outdated, the political discussion, and underlying philosophies remain as applicable as ever in the dynamic of 2005.Some books should never go out of print.
