Product description...

From the Horrors of the Holocaust to Freedom and Opportunity in America

For Robert Liebenau’s family, the dream of America was a powerful symbol of hope. His mother was liberated from Auschwitz while his father was liberated from a Hungarian/Russian forced labor camp, and then relocated to a Displaced Persons’ Camp in West Germany, where their son Robert was born. From Immigrants, to U.S. Citizenship, to the American Dream is a compelling and inspirational memoir about the struggles and triumphs of Robert’s family, from their iconic arrival at Ellis Island to their determination to succeed in their new country, while still honoring their old-world values, and the rituals and traditions inherent to their lives as Orthodox Jews. Learning an unfamiliar language, learning a new way of life, learning to be at home in America—and embracing what our country has to offer: this is the triumphant story of a family who was saved by the outstretched hand of Lady Liberty, and who became productive, responsible citizens in return.
