This powerful testament documents Nazi brutalities. Berg is a remarkably clear-eyed, skillful and heart-breaking recorder of thos terrible years., Direct, sharp-eyed and full of compelling detail, this Diary is both a major resource for historians and a richly compelling human document, Berg's powerful record of those terrible times is astonishingly lucid. The strength of her memories and the intensity of her experiences are naturally heart-breaking. This extraordinary, chilling memoir is essential reading for everyone, This book [...] gave me nightmares. But that is how colourful the writing of Berg is, how intense this one family's story is and how it can have an impact on the world. A must-read for everyone, What makes her account stand out is her novelist's eye: this is not just a crucial historical document but a classic read, The Richness of Berg's memories and the intensity of here experiences record for posterity a chilling account of childhood during the Holocaust., ...book is gripping and reads well. It is hard to put the book down because Berg's Writings...to share it with the world so many years later is a treasure. I believe it is a must-read for everyone, Mary Berg's diary records the dignity of man, his moral consciousness. Once again we are reminded that amid blazing homes, flame-swept streets and mass murders there were human beings who admitted no defeat.

Synopsis
She was just fifteen when Hitler entered Poland. She survived four years of Nazi terror. After 60 years of silence, this is her story., * Inspiring and fascinating tale of the strength of human spirit during one of humanity's darkest hours; * Reminiscent of both The Diary of Anne Frank, A Woman in Berlin and Suite Francaise; * Beautifully packaged in an attractive hardback, gift format for the Christmas market and containing original photographs and maps; * A unique insight from one of the few survivors of the Warsaw Ghetto, offering the only contemporary eye-witness account. After 60 years ofsilence, The Diary of Mary Berg is poised at last to gain the appreciation and widespread attention that it so richly deserves, and is certain to take it's place alongside The Diary of Anne Frank as one of the most significant memoirs of the twentieth century. From love to tragedy, seamlessly combining the everyday concerns of a growing teenager with a unique commentary on life in one of the darkest contexts of history. This is a work remarkable for its authenticity, detail, and poignancy. But it is not only as a factual report on the life and death of a people that The Diary of Mary Berg ranks with the most noteworthy documents of the Second World War. This is the personal story of a life-loving girl's encounter with unparalleled human suffering, a uniquely illuminating insight into one of the darkest chapters of history. Mary Berg was imprisoned in the ghetto from 1940 to 1943. Unlike so many others, she survived the war, rescued in a prisoner-of-war exchange due toher mother's dual Polish-American nationality. Her diary was published in 1945 when she was still only 19, in an attempt to alert the world to the Nazi atrocities in Poland, when it was described as "one of the most heartbreaking documents yet to come out of the war" by the /New Yorker/. After the war, Berg remained in America in quiet anonimity., When Hitler invaded Poland in 1939, Mary Berg was fifteen years old. From that time, until her arrival in the United States in 1944 by exchange through her mother's American citizenship, she kept a day-to-day record of her four years in the Warsaw Ghetto, confinement in a Warsaw prison, dispatch to the internment camp in Vittel, France, and finally, her journey to freedom. For the first time since 1945, this - the first and lengthiest eye-witness account of Jews' experiences in the Warsaw Ghetto - is available to the English-speaking public. This is a work remarkable for its authenticity, detail, and poignancy. But it is not only as a factual report on the life and death of a people that Warsaw Ghetto ranks with the most remarkable documents of Second World War. This is the personal story of a life-loving girl's encounter with unparalleled human suffering, a uniquely illuminating glance at one of the darkest chapters of history., After 60 years of silence, The Diary of Mary Berg is poised at last to gain the appreciation and widespread attention that it so richly deserves, and is certain to take its place alongside The Diary of Anne Frank as one of the most significant memoirs of the twentieth century. From love to tragedy, seamlessly combining the everyday concerns of a growing teenager with a unique commentary on one of the darkest chapters in history, this timeless story provides an illuminating insight into life in the Warsaw Ghetto., Inspiring and fascinating tale of the strength of human spirit during one of humanity s darkest hours; Reminiscent of both The Diary of Anne Frank, A Woman in Berlin and Suite Francaise; Beautifully packaged in an attractive hardback, gift format for the Christmas market and containing original photographs and maps; A unique insight from one of the few survivors of the Warsaw Ghetto, offering the only contemporary eye-witness account.

    This book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively throughout the process. This was an excellent buying experience and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.

    This book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
