Download or read book 36 Letters written by Joan Sohn and published by Jewish Publication Society. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joan Sohn found her grandparents? 36 letters, tucked away for 65 years in a small brown paper bag. When she read them, her family?s story came alive. Of course, there were missing pieces?many of them; and so she began a long labor of love, filling in the gaps. Thanks to those letters and Sohn?s determination, we have that story ? about people who left their homes for a new start and never returned. They reinvented themselves; they changed their citizenship, their language, their customs, and even their names. 36 Letters is about separation, personal struggle, and achievement. It?s about people who landed at Ellis Island and made their way, somehow, to New York?s Lower East Side, and then to Philadelphia, where they grew and multiplied and made remarkable contributions to the city?s development. Accompanied by over 100 stunning photographs, maps and illustrations, and, of course, the letters.

Download or read book Resilience written by Judy Stone and published by . This book was released on 2019-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "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

Download or read book The Haunted written by Ed Warren and published by Graymalkin Media. This book was released on 2014-10-04 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world’s most famous demonologists, Ed & Lorraine Warren, were called in to help an average American family who were assaulted by forces too awesome, too powerful, too dark, to be stopped. It’s a true story, supported by dozens of eyewitnesses—neighbors, priests, police, journalists, and researchers. The grim slaughterhouse of odors. The deafening pounding. The hoofed half-man charging down the hall. The physical attacks, a vicious strangling, failed exorcisms, the succubus... and the final terror which continued to torment the Smurls. In this shocking, terrifying, deeply absorbing book rivaled only by The Amityville Horror—a case also investigated by the Warrens—journalist Robert Curran digs deep into the haunting of the Smurl home in West Pittston, Pennsylvania, and the unshakeable family bonds that helped them survive. Don’t miss the Warrens' blockbuster films The Conjuring and Annabelle (in theaters October, 2014.)

Download or read book Surviving the Great Depression written by Joaquin Bowman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Depression, characterized by bread lines, general unemployment, bank and business failures, hit swiftly and unexpectantly. It challenged the inner and outer resources of the millions of bewildered people, coping with their responsibilities. And the Depression persisted, starting with the stock market crash in October, 1929, through various phases until the U.S. entered into World War II in December, 1941 and unemployment dropped below ten per cent. Prior to the financial collapse in 2008 most Americans had no idea what it was like to do without. Since WW II the economy has been, for the most part, on the upswing. As mortgages collapsed, however, and unemployment soared, Americans got a taste, just a taste, of the fear and hopelessness that gripped the nation during the Great Depression. This story is a record of how two people, Bill and Annie Hickey, with their three children, grew into and weathered through the long, hard period of that “Great Depression.”

Book excerpt: Join me for a family saga spanning five centuries in the ancient land of Bohemia. It's a tale of love and war. Lords and serfs. Death and disease. Mix in some lust and betrayal. Adventure and sacrifice. Hitler's vengeance and Czechoslovakia's brutal Communist regime. This is the true story of one family-the Matuskas-from the 1600s until today. Those who came to America and those who stayed behind. The story begins in the rolling, forested hills of South Bohemia where castles dot the landscape and two young serfs, Mandalena and Bartolomej, agreed to a marriage in the year 1603. Thousands of people living today can trace their roots back to this young couple who farmed in a small village south of Prague. I'm one of them, but for most of my life, I had no idea. Few of us really know our family history. Few of us realize what an incredible adventure awaits us if we just take the time to do a little digging. This is the story of my family's journey to find our ancestors and our Bohemian past. And the many surprises revealed along the way.

Download or read book The Search for One Family’s History written by S. Chandra Mohan and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2022-01-19 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the unique story of more than five generations of Malaysians and Singaporeans who originated from South India and settled first in British Malaya and later in what was then the crown colony of Singapore. It is a remarkable personal tale of the efforts to trace the original village of their ancestors in a remote part of Trichy in South India, a task made difficult by the passage of time and the lack of a common family surname for people of South Indian origin. It is also a poignant tale of the trials and tribulations of one family in a foreign land, put together with painstaking research. It is a welcome addition to Asian literature as very few narratives exist of the family history of South Indian Tamils in Singapore and Malaysia.

Download or read book Two For Joy - The true story of one family's journey to happiness with severely disabled twins written by James Melville-Ross and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two for Joy is the heart-warming true story of disabled twins Thomas and Alice, and their desperate fight for life after being born four months prematurely. James Melville-Ross, their father, tells of how the twins not only survived – despite being given the last rites as babies – but also thrived. From the dramatic first few months of the twins' lives – when Alice suffered a heart attack when only a day old, and Thomas's lungs filled with blood, leaving him only twenty minutes away from death – Two for Joy reveals the path that James and his wife Georgie have followed as parents to two severely disabled children. After the initial anger came the sheer hard work: the sleepless nights; the hospital dashes; the curious stares and unwelcome comment from strangers. But slowly came acceptance and, eventually, celebration of the joy that the medical marvels Thomas and Alice – now happy and energetic ten year olds – have brought to their lives. Finally they understood that disability might have turned their world upside down, but that it has also provided rewards beyond anything they could have imagined. This story is for any parent experiencing the shock of having extremely premature babies or coming to terms with having a child diagnosed with a disability. More than that, this story will change people's attitudes to disability, and show that love and true happiness can be found in even the most challenging of circumstances.
