Synopsis
Ever-breathtaking in its scope and powerful range of emotions, "For Those I Loved" returns in a new edition to tell again of the 14-year-old Jewish boy who masterminded a smuggling ring to sneak provisions into the Warsaw Ghetto to feed those starving. He then became the 17-year-old who escaped certain death at Treblinka to return to the ghetto and fight heroically in the uprising, the 19-year-old who became an officer in the Red Army with a special prerogative to hunt down fugitive Nazis and the 35-year-old who, having made a fortune in America, retired to France with his wife and family, only to have everything taken from him again. Yet, as always, he chose courage over despair and lived on to "tell the true story" - all for those he loved. In the years after "For Those I Loved" was first published, Martin Gray received thousands of letters from readers telling him how the book had inspired them and forever altered their lives. It's not difficult to understand their adoration for a book that defies easy categorisation.
It's an inspiring story of hope; an uplifting memoir; a unique Holocaust story; a riveting history lesson; a horrifying glance at the darkest depths of the human soul, and a triumphant celebration of the indomitable human spirit. This all-new edition features a revealing new opening chapter by Martin Gray and a photo-essay about his family and recent work to teach and inspire young people in France. This book was a "New York Times" bestseller when first published in 1972. Martin Gray's 11 books in 26 languages have been read by 30 million worldwide."About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
