A Breed Apart: A Miraculous Escape From Russia: From Dp Camp To Columbia University And Beyond - 9780999336519

A Remarkable Historical Journey and Legacy From Siberia to Columbia University, this epic tale of war and survival is seen through the eyes of a young Miriam Hoffman and her father, Chaim Schmulewitz, a well-respected columnist of the Yiddish press Undzerweg. Highly personal and historic, A Breed Apart brings to light the oppression of the Soviet regime, the five-year history of the Displaced Persons Refugee Camps (DP camps) in Germany from 1946 to 1951, the struggles of post-World War II anti-Semitism, and Professor Hoffman's coming of age in America.
