"I have read Joseph Freeman's testimony and remain moved by its painful and powerful message." -Elle Welsel, Nobel Laureate and author of Night "With my last bit of strength, I tried to rise, but again passed out... opening my eyes I found an American soldier over me. His face was sweaty, his eyes filled with tears. I made a noise and he laughed... His words still ring in my ears, 'Hey, fellas, here's one more still alive.'" -from the chapter Liberation
