"Perel bares his soul to readers in this fascinating, unusual personal narrative of the Holocaust." -Book Report

None is more incredible than the story of a Jewish boy, Solomon Perel, who escaped from Germany to Russia, served with the Wehrmacht in Russia, was adopted by his commanding officer, and transferred to an elite Hitler Youth school." - London Jewish News
"A most remarkable story... extraordinary." - The Australian
