About this ebook
In 1941 Berek Jakubowicz (now Benjamin Jacobs) was deported from his Polish village and remained a prisoner of the Reich until the final days of the war. His possession of a few dental tools and rudimentary skills saved his life. Jacobs helped assemble V1 and V2 rockets in Buchenwald and Dora-Mittelbau; spent a year and a half in Auschwitz, where he was forced to remove gold teeth from corpses; and survived the RAF attack on three ocean liners turned prison camps in the Bay of Lubeck. This is his story.

My review cannot put into words about what happened in Europe during ww2. I suggest thst you read as much about the subject as possible so that these crimes are well known. What is great about this book is the human element. Benjamin Jacob tells his story from a first person perspective. His is an unbelievable story of survival, both by luck and skill.
