Seventy years ago Joe Rubinstein walked out of a Nazi concentration camp. Until now, his story has been hidden from the world. Shortly before dawn on a frigid morning in Radom, Poland, German soldiers forced twenty-one year-old Icek "Joe" Rubinsztejn onto a crowded, open-air truck. The next day, several around him were dead. From there, things got worse for young Joe-much worse. Joe arrived at Auschwitz on April 30, 1942. Now, in his nineties, Joe reveals how he survived several of the most notorious concentration camps when so many others perished. His is a remarkable narrative-a unique story of endurance, courage and faith. Barefooted when he was seized by the Nazis, Joe became one of New York's leading shoe designers-working with companies whose shoes were sought after by First Ladies and movie stars alike. Joe's story bears witness to the ultimate triumph of the human spirit. While the Nazis took everything else, they were unable to take his unassailable joy. Joe's story is one of discovering light in the darkest of places, an inspiration for us all.

Seven years ago, holocaust survivor Joe Rubinstein told author Nancy Sprowell Geise that he would never publicly share his experiences at Auschwitz and several other of the most notorious Nazi concentration camps. Two and a half years ago, he changed his mind. When Nancy began writing Joe's story, she had no idea the impact it would have on her life as she immersed herself in Joe's world and his remarkable journey of survival and triumph. Author Nancy Sprowell Geise's debut novel, The Eighth Sea, was ranked #1 in Historical Fiction and #1 Historical Romance (free Kindle downloads) #1 Historical Genre Literature & Fiction (Kindle); #1 Religion and Spirituality Fiction (Kindle) and was a Quarter Finalist 2012 Amazon Breakthrough Awards. Nancy Sprowell Geise was raised in Ames, Iowa, and is a graduate of Iowa State University. She and her husband have lived in Austin, Texas; Fort Collins, Colorado; and Topeka, Kansas. Nancy divides her time between writing and speaking engagements. Her hilarious and moving life experiences provide great fodder for her writing and storytelling endeavors.
