The photographs reveal their strength of character. The narrative profiles tell of the family and culture that sustained them through the horror that was the Holocaust and nourished them as they rebuilt lives in America. |

Kansas City Star Books is proud to present "The Midwest Holocaust Center is to be congratulated. In addition to its fine work in Holocaust education it has now provided a moving work of Holocaust documentation, which tells the story of survivors and refugees who emerged from the ravages of the Shoah and journeyed forth to make their home in Kansas City. This book tells their story individually and collectively. The visual displays enhance the written word. All are readily accessible to students of all ages. This work is a fitting tribute to the past, a vital documentation of the present and a meaningful contribution to the future. A generation from now or even two, when students study the Holocaust and ask did anyone come to our state, did any survivors make their home in our city, the answer will be forthcoming. These are the men and women who came from the world of Auschwitz and its sister camps to live among us. This is their story. Indeed, this is their legacy from the world of darkness. This is a model of how a community should speak of its past and its present to the future."
