Pages are clean and unmarked. Photo illustrated. Bound in the original black wraps, with a full color photo of Ruth Goldschmiedova Sax on the rear cover. From the rear cover: " Meet Ruth Goldschmiedova Sax. She is standing next to the dress that her Grandmother wore during the time she was in Oederan. She never took it off and every week she would bend over and the Nazis painted an X and stripe down her backside. The dress was initially given to her in Auschwitz. Ruth Goldschmiedova Sax's life story begins in Moravia in 1928, where she lived comfortably as an only child with her parents. At the age of eleven the Nazis invaded Czechoslovakia and life changed for everyone. By 1941, the family found themselves getting off a transport train in Theresienstadt, where Ruth was forced to grow up quickly. She was shaved to prevent lice infestation, wrapped her feet in paper to keep them warm in the winter, and witnessed the deaths of many. Separated from her father, she survived awful circumstances, only to be sent to Auschwitz in 1944, where she faced Dr. Mengele half a dozen times. Finally, with G-d's help and liberation, she was reunited in 1945 with her mother and father, a miracle within itself. Ruth later emigrated to America where she married Kurt Sax, whom she had met at age seven. This memoir narrates the dramatic life circumstances that led her from her birthplace in central Czechoslovakia, to three concentration camps, and finally to her home in America. Future plans are to find a museum for this dress so that it can be displayed accordingly for all to see and remind us to NEVER FORGET.". INSCRIBED / SIGNED by Sandra Scheller. 1st ed? (No additional printings listed). Softcover. Very Good condition. Illus. by NOT a library discard. xxv, 122pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Sobre About Books
About Books (Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and OP books since 1985.

Our inventory of over 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialties listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole.

Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please, only between the hours of 8am and 10pm (west coast time).
