What if you uncovered a Nazi paper trail that revealed your father
to be a man very different from the quiet, introspective dad you
knew . . . or thought you knew? Growing up, author Mel Laytner saw
his father as a quintessential Type B: passive and conventional. As
he uncovered documents the Nazis didn't burn, however, another man
emerged-a black market ringleader and wily camp survivor who made
his own luck. The tattered papers also shed light on painful
secrets his father took to his grave. Melding the intimacy of
personal memoir with the rigors of investigative journalism, What
They Didn't Burn is a heartwarming, inspiring story of resilience
and redemption. A story of how desperate survivors turned hopeful
refugees rebuilt their shattered lives in America, all the while
struggling with the lingering trauma that has impacted their
children to this day.
