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"-- Provided by publisher Rabinowitz family 9310 Rabinowitz, Miriam Dworetsky, 1908-1981 9311 Rabinowitz, Morris, 1906-1982 9312 Lazowski, Philip 9313 Rabinowitz family. fast (OCoLC)fst00212897 9310 Jews Belarus Dzi︠at︡lava (Hrodzenskai︠a︡ voblastsʹ) Biography 9314 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) Poland 9315 World War, 1939-1945 Jews Bialowieza Forest (Poland and Belarus) 9316 Jews. fast (OCoLC)fst00983135 Holocaust survivors Connecticut Hartford Biography 9317 Belarus Dzi︠at︡lava (Hrodzenskai︠a︡ voblastsʹ) fast (OCoLC)fst01288941 9318 Connecticut Hartford. fast (OCoLC)fst01207441 9319 Europe Bialowieza Forest. fast (OCoLC)fst01310298 9320 Poland. fast (OCoLC)fst01206891 643 Biography Biographies. fast (OCoLC)fst01919896 5221 Biographies. lcgft 5221 .b171797784 ddc BOOK 27894 27894 ddc 0 0 ABELJ ABELJ NF 2021-11-10 28.99 5 1 940.53 FRAN 63237 2023-12-26 2023-10-19 2021-11-10 BOOK 1
