This is the story of a young man caught in the whirlwind of the
Holocaust, who survives a chain of events so harrowing they almost
defy belief. As a boy, Joe Rosenblum watches as the Nazi overlords
tighten their grip on his small Polish town. Narrowly escaping mass
executions that take his own brother, Rosenblum is first sheltered
by a local Gentile family, then takes refuge with Russian
partisans. Once captured by the Germans, he begins a journey
through three concentration camps-Majdanek, Auschwitz, and Dachau.
Living by his wits, a courier for the camp underground, Rosenblum
is able to help other prisoners, and even to save children selected
for the gas chambers. Eventually he finds himself working for the
infamous Dr. Mengele. In a bizarre twist of fate, the Angel of
Death is persuaded to perform life-saving surgery on
Rosenblum-perhaps making him the only Jew to be saved by the deadly
doctor's skills. A remarkable man who danced on the razor's edge of
history, Rosenblum did not merely survive the Holocaust, but rose
above it by radiating hope and humanity-by defying the darkness.
