Description
Survival and Love: A Double Escape from the Nazis by Ted Bailey In 1939, two young people lived vastly different lives. Lizzy Schwarz was a teenager in Czechoslovakia, while Jerzy Dyszkiewicz was an Officer Cadet in Poland. As World War II broke out, their paths diverged into unimaginable hardship and survival. Lizzy's family was interned in Nazi concentration camps, where her mother died from illness brought on by cruel treatment. Despite being sent to three of the most notorious camps, Lizzy miraculously survived. Jerzy, meanwhile, was captured by the Soviet Army and sent to a series of POW camps before escaping with three comrades near the Belgian border. Their stories eventually intersected in London in 1955, where they married on September 17th. This is their remarkable tale of survival, escape, and love, which spans one of the darkest periods in history.
