Adult Non-Fiction

Reviewed by Michelle from the Altona Branch

    Born Survivors tells the true and awful story of three women, all newlyweds and newly pregnant.  They are shipped to Auschwitz during WWII and what they endured there during their pregnancies was nothing short of horrible.  Starved and half dying, all three mothers give birth while incarcerated and, miraculously, all three infants survive to adulthood.

    The endurance of the human spirit is perfectly captured in this amazing book!
