About the Book
It is estimated that along with the over 6 million Jews who were slaughtered, Hitler’s ambition to establish Nazi Germany as the global dominant force led to the deaths of more than 70 million people.
Felix and Bluma’s miraculous story of survival, combined with the rise of nationalism and fascism, leading to the extermination of millions of human beings is also a cautionary tale – a dangerous history that, if we fail to heed the warning signs, could very well be repeated.
