The Book of Zgierz - An Eternal Memorial for a Jewish Community of
Poland is the translation of the Yizkor (Memorial) Book published
in Tel Aviv in 1975 in Hebrew by survivors and former residents of
the town. It details through personal accounts the destruction of
the Jewish community by the Nazis and their Polish collaborators in
World War II. This publication by the "Yizkor Books in Print
Project" of JewishGen, Inc., serves to provide the English speaking
community with these first-hand accounts in book format, so that
researchers and descendants of Jewish emigrants from the town can
learn this history. 786 page with illustrations, Hard Cover.
This author's biography is an ongoing account of abuse, rape, and
torment. It is written with a provocative tool of undercurrents
that substantiate how generational curses are formed. The factual
scenario of family disgruntling bears witness to the "learned
behavior" that causes extreme anxiety and emotional torment. This
story is not about revenge or judgment. It is simply a chronicle to
give readers a comparative view of themselves and their families
with imminent clarity. Although the original purpose of this book
was to share "deep" secrets with the author's children, the crux of
these secrets had already influenced too many circumstances and
characteristics of her progeny. Repeated family behavior had
developed into curses that were passed from generation to
generation. If relationships are your enemy, and you have somehow
moved from one abusive relationship to another, you will learn
"why" you continue to enter these same types of relationships. If
your body is twisted due to bitterness and unforgiveness, you will
learn how attitude promotes pain. If you are haunted by shadows of
your past, this book may help you understand and deal with your
emotions. No one is exempt from some type of family transference.
Emotional effects may go unnoticed by others, although they alter
our lives and usually require resolution. There is a heavily
populated audience of esoteric families who are crying out
everywhere because they have been hurt. If you have experienced
abuse, Ima's biography may be difficult to read. Humor and faith
are both excellent coping skills to help deal with the dark side.
This book contains enough tincture (an admixture of humor) to help
cope with emotions as readers experience the heaviness of this
story. Laughter is the morphine that will numb your pain until your
resolution comes.

In this heart-stopping tale, the passengers of the Hudson River
crash landing evoke in compelling detail the terrifying explosion
as both engines were destroyed, the violent landing on the river,
and the thrill of their rescue from the wings and from rafts. Jay
McDonald, a thirty-nine-year-old software developer, had survived
brain-tumor surgery just two years earlier and now faced the
unimaginable. Tracey Wolsko, a nervous flier, suddenly became other
people's rock: "Just pray. It's going to be all right." As the
plane started sinking, Lucille Palmer, eighty-five, told her
daughter to save herself: "Just leave me!" Featuring moments of
chaos and stoicism, fortuitous mistakes and quick instincts,
"Miracle on the Hudson "is the chronicle of one of the most
phenomenal stories of recent years, one that could have been a
nightmare and instead became a stirring narrative of heroism and
hope.
