Summary

"At the close of World War II, American soldiers had the shock of their lives. In this book, the true story of the liberation of a death train deep in the heart of Nazi Germany is chronicled, brought to life by the history teacher who discovered the little-known story and went on to reunite hundreds of Holocaust survivors all over the world with the actual American solders who saved them!"--Dust jacket flap
