This is the story of an ordinary young man with an ordinary life who, when caught up in extraordinary circumstances, turned out to be a remarkable human being. Joe Rosenblum endured the slow strangulation of his hometown, three death camps -including 18 months working in close quarters with Josef Mengele - and, finally, a death march, surviving through a combination of luck, ingenuity, compassion and kindness. He was sustained by a noble spirit, one so tough that even Nazis could not crush it - and a virtually unshakable belief that his simple and plain dream would come true. Throughout his ordeal, which included being sheltered by a Polish Gentile family and a stint with the Russian partisans prior to his imprisonment, Joe saved numerous people from certain death and only narrowly averted his own demise on nearly a dozen occasions. He deliberately set out to work for Josek Mengele and succeeded, carting out office trash along with corpses, all the while gathering valuable information for the camp's underground. At one point Mengele intentionally saved Joe's life by performing a vital operation. Ultimately, this is the tale of Everyman turned teenaged hero - a story of hope about a young man who did not merely survive the Holocaust, but who rose above it by radiating hope and humanity in a time and a place where there was almost none to be had of either.
