Learn History Through Fiction: Complacent Cowards

“If we had behaved like humane and generous people instead of complacent, cowardly ones, millions of Jews lying in Hitler’s crowded graveyards would be alive and safe” (Freda Kirchwey, Editor-in-Chief, The Nation). History shows America failed to end WW2 sooner or admit those fleeing Nazi persecution. Read about a German Jewish family who tries to escape to the U.S. in the novel One Person’s Loss.
