A Tragic Story,
By Jim (austin texas usa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Holocaust Kingdom: A Memoir (Paperback)
I have read dozens of holocaust books over the years, mostly non-fiction accounts. I must say this book, more than most, really brought home to me what it must have been like to endure the horror of living in the Warsaw Ghetto. Some of the scenes Donat describes, I literally had to put the book down, they were so tragic. Donat had access to many different streets within the Ghetto so it is almost like he is giving you a tour of the daily occurences that transpired. This book reinforces the belief that sometimes it is more honorable to die than to commit certain acts, such as some of the panic-driven people were desperate enough to commit. The killing of the children was indeed horrific. ... I am glad he, his wife, and son survived the war, but I know it was at a great cost.

The Holocaust Kingdom,
By Bob Craton (Smyrna, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Holocaust Kingdom: A Memoir (Paperback)
I read this book many years ago, and have regretted losing my copy. It is intense, almost overwhelming. Leon Uris used some of the same scenes in his "Mila 18", but this one is a memoir, not a novel. Pay attention to the narrator/author's name--I have remembered what happened to it for 25+ years.

Buyer Beware!,
This review is from: The Holocaust Kingdom: A Memoir (Paperback)
Amazon Marketplace Booksellers are abusing their privilege to sell this good book, charging ridiculous auction prices. The book sells from the US Holocaust Memorial Museum for $15.95, brand new!! [....] This is an excellent book, but should not cost you more than $20.
