The Survivor

The amazing, untold story of the Holocaust from a survivor turned Nazi hunter.

No one expected the Nazis to arrive with such speed, and without a shot being fired. But when they entered Krakow in 1939, Josef Lewkowicz's life was obliterated as he and his family were sent to concentration camps across the continent. Josef-after surviving the horrors of six separate concentration camps during World War II-became a relentless Nazi hunter in the aftermath of the war.

The Survivor is a captivating record of one man's survival against all odds-but it is also a unique and ultimately optimistic chronicle of such a pivotal moment in history, offering wisdom and hope despite the crushing darkness. Josef's pursuit of justice-which includes the capture of his greatest tormentor, the murderous SS kommandant Amon Goeth, made infamous through his chilling portrayal by Ralph Fiennes in Schinder's List-takes readers on a riveting exploration of a story that spanned continents.

In The Survivor, Josef Lewkowicz shares a poignant and gripping account of his remarkable life, capturing the indomitable spirit and enduring soul-the neshama-of the survivor. This is more than a story; it is a testament to human resilience, a chronicle of justice, and a tribute to those who defied the darkest moments of our history.
