He was the last survivor of the more than two thousand Jews who were rounded up by the Gestapo and deported from Cologne. Assigned to back-breaking labor in the Auschwitz horse-breeding stables, Henry clung to the belief that if he made himself hard to replace, he might stay alive. Through it all, Henry found the strength to survive and was one of only twenty-three to emerge alive from the concentration camp after the war. How did one starving boy, alone and forgotten, survive this ultimate hell on earth? The Stable Boy of Auschwitz is the heartbreaking, mesmerizing, and unforgettable true story that will destroy your faith in humanity ... and then build it back up again." -- Back cover. 541 $d 20230417. 600 1 $a Oster, Henry H., $d 1928- 610 27 $a Auschwitz (Concentration camp.) 650 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Germany. 650 $a Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) $z Poland. 650 $a Jews $z Cologne. $z Cologne. 700 $a Ford, Dexter,. 830 $a Biography. 941 $a 9 952 $l EWPB745 $d 20240412010524.0 952 $l XEPE697 $d 20240130010314.0 952 $l EFPB605 $d 20231120170453.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20231004010426.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20230803010132.0 952 $l NWPC663 $d 20230720010635.0 952 $l TFPI826 $d 20230621011608.0 952 $l OCPA943 $d 20230429020737.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20230422010743.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=658FB4DAE0D311ED90AABADA37ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
