- Summary
- "During World War II, hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews suffered prejudice and discrimination, oppressive segregation, and wholesale murder at the hands of the Nazis. In "Resilience," Dr. Judy Stone reveals how her family survived these monstrous times and slowly rebuilt their lives, focusing on their inner strength and the good people they found. This book is a study in human contrasts: kindness and callousness, tolerance and hatred, compassion and cruelty. It not only provides testimony about the horrors of the Holocaust and the lessons we must learn so that history will not repeat itself but also offers readers a connection to the rich heritage of Jewish life in Europe that has been largely lost."--Back cover.
