Product Description
by Walter Juraszek (Author)
Mankind's struggle during the World War II has not been totally understood yet by many scholars and the general public across the world. The book tells the story of ordinary men and women experiencing the horrible events and genocide during World War II. There were two kinds of human hearts in the evil time: the good heart to save an innocent life from death because of religion or race by risking his/her own life and the evil man with a corrupted heart and poisoned mind with the pleasure to kill another human being. The hope of survival in the evil time were the faith, spiritual guides, and the bond between the good hearts that could not be divided even with the threat of death.
