Book
By chance alone : a remarkable true story of courage and survival at Auschwitz.
In the tradition of Wiesel's NIGHT and Levi's SURVIVAL IN AUSCHWITZ comes a new memoir by Canadian survivor. Tibor "Max" Eisen was born in Moldava, Czechoslovakia into an Orthodox Jewish family. In the spring of 1944, gendarmes forcibly removed Eisen and his family from their home. They were brought to a brickyard and eventually loaded onto crowded cattle cars bound for Auschwitz-Birkenau. The author will be donating 100% of his royalties for this book to registered charities that promote education and humane causes.
