a book that must be read, so the holocaust is not forgotten. a haunting book, but full of hope for the future. a new angle to the holocaust: that of the soldiers who were there when the camps were shut down.

This one took me a while to read because the topic is so tough, so emotional. Yes, there was a lot of repetition in stories...which is to be expected of a shared experience, I would think.

My first Kindle-based library checkout. Very interesting to see other readers' highlights in a book like this... you wouldn't do that with a paper copy.

A most sobering (if not particularly well-written) collection of liberation stories from the American soldiers who were there to free the concentration camp victims. I was especially moved by the chapter on how these men dealt with the experience and their memories after they came back to the States. Truly, they were a great generation.
