Rating:
Summary: Holocaust Survivor
Review: Defying death, Jack Eisner and his gang of teenagers smuggled food and arms over the wall of the Warsaw Ghetto. He fought in the ghetto uprising. Taken to the concentration camps, he masterminded a series of escapes, only to be recaptured. He escaped execution by seconds--time and time again. Finally, on a death march he could not have survived, Jack Eisner was liberated by American troops. He was nineteen. One hundred members of his family had perished.

Summary: A 5 star rating is not enough!
Review: It has been a long time since I have read a book that had me so "hooked". It has all the elements of an engrossing story... and to boot, it's all true. What an inspiration, delivered in clear, concise writing. It's surprising that it has never been made into a movie. Very highly recommended for all ages. Thank you for sharing it all, Mr. Eisner.

Summary: Compelling
Review: The facts as they should be told as part of a beautiful love story. Eisner had a deep love of his people, his family, his Helina and most importantly of his life. This is a compelling story and a must read for anyone interested in the Holocaust.

Summary: AN EYE-OPENING EXPERIENCE
Review: This incredible piece of writing is a materpiece! I was engrossed in The Survivor from the first page and was deeply moved throughout. Jack Eisner's incredible true story of survival against all odds in the face of unimaginable human cruelty and brutality by the Nazis, should be compulsory reading for teenage secondary students!!
