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. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Oster, Henry H., |d1928-2019. 650 0 Holocaust survivors |vPersonal narratives. 610 20 Auschwitz (Concentration camp) 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |zGermany. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |zPoland. 650 0 Jews |zGermany |zCologne. 610 27 Auschwitz (Concentration camp) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00723014 650 7 Jews. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983135 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 Germany |zCologne. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01208521 651 7 Poland. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01206891 647 7 Jewish Holocaust |d(1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 655 7 Autobiographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 Autobiographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Personal narratives. |2lcgft 700 1 Ford, Dexter, |eauthor. 852 0 |bscstacks |hD804.196 |i.O86 2023
