Manfred -- His Story of Survival...from Concentration Camp to Freedom in America (in his very own words)

A young Jewish boy's (Manfred) account of life in a Nazi concentration camp and how he'd gotten there; that, followed by his harrowing experience as one of Tito's partisans; then, his perilous journey to America aboard the U.S. Army Transport Ship the Henry Gibbins: a joyful, yet beyond terrifying journey, which culminated in Oswego, New York at the Fort Ontario Emergency Refugee Shelter. Along with Manfred's story, is a black and white pictorial landscape, which covers the various segments of his perilous journey from concentration camp to freedom in America - starting with safe refuge at Fort Ontario Military Post, in Oswego, New York.

Manfred, at age 121/2, although his primary languages, then, upon his arrival in the U.S. were Yugoslav and German (with a rudimentary knowledge of Greek and English) he, nonetheless, had been able to document his extraordinary experience, in English-longhand, by age 13 - just 6 months after being in America!
