After World War II, the Girls Club of Brooklyn, New York, became
both home and safe haven to orphaned teenagers who were Holocaust
survivors. They are a small group, but taken together these women's
stories represent the broad range of experiences that most Jews
suffered during and after the Holocaust. Some endured the ghettos
and camps. Some survived in hiding, with partisans, or in the
remote far-eastern reaches of the Soviet Union. Consequently this
collective, personal history-enriched with relevant information
about places, people, events and issues-tells not only their story,
but also the story of tens of thousands of child survivors. The
work of scholars from various disciplines and genres provides
background information and historical detail as this book traces
the women's experiences from their childhood days in pre-war Europe
to the present. Contrary to what early literature on child
survivors predicted, they built successful lives in America.
