Product Information
'Eddie looked evil in the eye and met it with joy and kindness . . . [his] philosophy is life-affirming' - Daily Express Holocaust survivor Eddie Jaku made a vow to smile every day and now believes he is the 'happiest man on earth'. In his inspirational memoir, he pays tribute to those who were lost by telling his story and sharing his wisdom. Life can be beautiful if you make it beautiful. It is up to you. Eddie Jaku always considered himself a German first, a Jew second. He was proud of his country. But all of that changed in November 1938, when he was beaten, arrested and taken to a concentration camp. Over the next seven years, Eddie faced unimaginable horrors every day, first in Buchenwald, then in Auschwitz, then on a Nazi death march. He lost family, friends, his country. Published following Eddie's one hundred and first birthday, The Happiest Man on Earth is a powerful, heartbreaking and ultimately hopeful memoir of how happiness can be found even in the darkest of times. 'Australia's answer to Captain Tom . . . a memoir that extols the power of hope, love and mutual support' - The TimesProduct Identifiers

An Amazing Story of Overcoming and Making A New Life
i picked up this book shortly after it was delivered, I have in the past read many stories about the treatment of Jewish people, some of it was very graphic reading, and quite horrifying what the human race can do. Indeed this book shows, exactly how people who you once thought of as friends and neighbours, can be intimidated and turn against you. The author thought of himself as German firstly and his Jewish roots came second. It certainly makes you realise the extent of the atrocities and the level that human beings can descend too and become immune to the consequences of their actions. It always has a positive note to it, despite the unimaginable horrors of his time in the camps, there is always so much self belief and the amazing where wit all too overcome it. It undoubtedly will be among the last of the books by Holocaust Survivors. I hope and pray that this book and others like it will continue to be read, so that these atrocities never happen again, but looking at current history, I have my doubts. I am not Jewish, but have great respect for them, my wedding suit was made by Jewish Tailors, who were the pinnacle of Customer Service. I wholeheartedly commend this book.!!!!!!!
