5.0 out of 5 stars
A truly creative marriage of History and Art, June 10, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Love and Liberation: When the Jews Tore Down the Ghetto Walls (Paperback)
Prof. Stanley A. Wolpert, Professor of History at UCLA, writes: "Love and Liberation is a truly creative marriage of History and Art. Ralph Fertig's poignant love story is set against a compelling backdrop of inhuman oppression of Jews in the Breslau ghetto and their heartrending struggles to achieve dignity and liberation. Fertig's brilliant command of History is as impressive as is his creative talent in vividly portraying multifaceted human beings. 'Love and Liberation' is an inspiring and beautiful book."
LOS ANGELES TIMES lists "Love and Liberation" as fourth in its publication of Bestsellers for paperback fiction (June 10, 2001)

"Love and Liberation" captures a vital moment of history, February 28, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Love and Liberation: When the Jews Tore Down the Ghetto Walls (Paperback)
Rabbi Chaim Beliak of Jerusalem and Los Angles writes, "Fertig has captured a period of time often hidden from the view of knowledgeable professional historians and lay readers. How life was lived at the early moments of modernity. Jewish struggles in Germany for participation in civil society were arduous and difficult. Fertig connects all the dots in an entertaining and very readable fashion."
