Surviving Hitler : the unlikely true story of an SS soldier and a Jewish woman

Description

Gustav Palm kept his secret for more than forty years. He had been a young man when Hitler invaded his native Norway. After being forced to guard a Nazi prison camp, however, Gustav took his only option for escape: he volunteered for the Waffen-SS to fight at the front. Agnes Erdös grew up in privilege and prosperity as a child in Hungary. She and her parents were practicing Roman Catholics, but they were ethnic Jews, and after the Nazis invaded her country, Agnes and her parents were sent to the death camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau. Miraculously, both Agnes and Gustav survived. And after the war, they found each other. Told in their own words, Surviving Hitler is the story of two indomitable spirits who built on their life-altering experiences to overcome the past, help each other heal, and embrace a common faith in God that led them to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Content: Before the war -- The war begins -- On the front lines -- Blessings amidst suffering -- Understanding the enemy -- The last minutes of war -- Liberation and captivity -- Shaping a new life -- A life together -- Finding the Church of Jesus Christ.
