George Moshe Stein was a Jewish young man growing up with his family in the village of Oradea in Romania. In 1942 the scourge of Nazisim came to them and upturned their lives and aspirations forever. Initially forced into an unbearable ghetto, the family was forcibly 'relocated' in May 1944. Transported to Auschwitz-Birkenau the family was divided - never to be whole again. George, confused and desperate, did what he could to stay alive and maintain hope.This is his story of survival, endurance and ultimately triumph against the odds. Lovingly written by George's son - Michael - it includes first-hand accounts of George's experiences and achievements, as well as testimonies from friends and family.
