About this title

Synopsis:

The author recounts his childhood in Grodno, Poland, describes how he survived, from age ten to fifteen, at Buchenwald and Auschwitz, and explains how he has been able to overcome his anger and grief

From the Publisher:

There are horrors in the history of humans, events so terrible that the mind can not understand them and the soul can not accept them. Mr. Harold Gordon is the survivor of one of these event, the Nazi Holocaust.

His book, "The Last Sunrise" is a story of the invincibility of the human spirit and ability, which comes from strength of character, so surmount the unscalble. It is a true story of ten year old boy living on the wrong continent, finding himself devoid of friends and relatives - and survives.

He came of age in a world of barbed wire and barracks, of torture and death. His nature could have been seared in the flames of unforgivable inhumanity. His life could have been devoted to bitter hatred and the search for retribution. Rather, Mr. Gordon turned his lot into an opportunity to reach others, to forgive, and to teach the message of nonviolence to your people.

As an author and public speaker, he has shown that his personal journey may be a course for others. His message is if there is desire, there are means to go beyond hatred and violence. It is without reservation that I wholeheartedly recommend his story for your serious consideration.
