Description

Join Fifth Avenue Press author Pauline Loewenhardt for a talk on her book: Almost Lost: Detroit Kids Discover Holocaust Secrets and Family Survivors.

The story begins in the mid-1990s when Pauline and her siblings discovered descendants of one of their father's brothers in the Netherlands, which opened the door to family secrets and mysteries around their Jewish heritage, World War II, and the Holocaust. Through the years, Pauline managed to forge relationships with these newly-discovered family members, and in the process, learned the truth about her family's past. The epic story concludes with an epilogue about the newest generation of her extended family and its continued growth. Filled with photographs, artwork, family trees and other primary references.

This event includes a signing with books available for sale.
