A Compelling Story of Two Sisters who Survived the Holocaust

I had the great honor to read an early draft of the book by Daniel Seymour: From Auschwitz with Love. It is the powerful story of two sisters, Manci and Ruth, who managed to survive seven months at Auschwitz and then a grueling death march through the Sudeten Mountains. Their parents and six siblings were murdered in the gas chambers. Manci and Ruth wrote about their experiences just after being rescued. Decades later, author Daniel Seymour combined these very personal journals with interviews of the women and created the impactful book, From Auschwitz with Love. It chronicles not only their life during the war, but the ways these two women came to terms with their experiences and the loss of their family. Each found their own way, unique from one another.

I highly recommend that you order a copy. It would make a great gift. I am honored that my quote appears on the inside cover jacket of the book. “In capturing this story, Daniel Seymour has given the world a beautiful gift.” And he has!
