In the summer of 1942, the Rabinowitz family narrowly escaped the Nazi ghetto in their Polish town by fleeing to the forbidding Bialowieza Forest. They miraculously survived two years in the woods- through brutal winters, Typhus outbreaks, and merciless Nazi raids-until they were liberated by the Red Army in 1944. After the war they trekked across the Alps into Italy where they settled as refugees before eventually immigrating to the United States. During the first ghetto massacre, Miriam Rabinowitz rescued a young boy named Philip by pretending he was her son. Nearly a decade later, a chance encounter at a wedding in Brooklyn would lead Philip to find the woman who saved him. And to discover her daughter Ruth was the love of his life. From a little- known chapter of Holocaust history, one family's inspiring true story of love, escape, and survival"--|cProvided by publisher. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York|cMacmillan Audio|d2021 |nAvailable via World Wide Web. 600 10 Rabinowitz, Miriam Dworetsky,|d1908-1981. 600 10 Rabinowitz, Morris,|d1906-1982. 600 10 Lazowski, Philip. 600 30 Rabinowitz family. 650 0 Jews|zBelarus|zDzi︠a︡tlava ((Hrodzenskai︠a︡ voblastsʹ) |vBiography. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)|zPoland. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945|xJews|zBialowieza Forest (Poland and Belarus) 650 0 Audiobooks. 651 0 Holocaust survivors|zConnecticut|zHartford|vBiography. 710 2 OverDrive, Inc.,|edistributor. 856 40 |zAccess this title to use with your computer or mobile device using OverDrive.|uhttp://link.overdrive.com/ ?websiteID=316&titleID=6011266
