10 more Steps

10 more steps by Max Gurney. The book is about the life of a jew during world war 2. The book is very interesting and factual, as the book really shows the harsh condition the jewish people had to live in.   The book starts of with a casual dinner with the family. They were talking about people invading when, bombs dropped and the Nazis came in. The father and son had to watch the mother get killed and the two were sent off to different camps. At the camps he had a friend who helped him on surviving at these camps. They had to work long hours with short breaks in between, complaining could get you killed as well. The Nazis showed what would happen to people that attempted to escape, making the book gruesome. Towards the end when the Death March occurred. The soviets intervened with the Nazis, and then the Nazis tried to clear all the evidence. Just before the main character, Avram, was going to be killed the soviet soldiers killed them and the jews were free.
