Gabriel Laufer shares the gripping stories of his father's survival in the Holocaust and his service in four Israeli wars, leading the reader through his family's personal history and its place in some of the momentous events of the 20th century.
The Holocaust and the birth and growth of Israel are strikingly different Jewish historical events. Yet they are related, just like the author, Gabriel Laufer and his father. With only a few hints in hand, Laufer researched the details of his father's Holocaust survival in the Hungarian forced labor battalions near Stalingrad, as a slave building German bunkers for weapon factories, and later, his escape from Stalinist Hungary.

Laufer leads the reader through his family's personal history and its place in some of the momentous events of the twentieth century.
