This review is from: The Gypsy Moon: 1940 (The House of Winslow #35) (Paperback)

This book is a disgrace. The title is "The Gypsy Moon," the cover illustration is from a Harelequin romance with stereotyped Gypsies, and the book is about the Holocaust.
The "gypsy" (not "Gypsy") characters are introduced on page 25, with earrings, and kerchiefs, fortune telling and wagons, but that's all they arte in this book about the Holocaust. Mr. Morris' books are for young people. This is where they will get information not only about Gypsies but about their significance in the Holocaust. It is time Romani people stopped being a literary motif and became real people. The Final Solution was the genocidal program that attempted to destroy both Jews and Gypsies. The readers will certainly not learn that. Ian Hancock

This is an excellent book. Gilbert Morris has a wonderful way of writing. He researches the historical information and writes books that I find entertaining to read as well as educational. This one deals with the second world war and the Jewish persecution. I like the fact that he always includes the gospel in his books.
