A tragicomic, inspirational memoir of surviving the Holocaust. The author spent nearly three years on the road with the Hungarian forced labor battalions during WWII, taking him from Budapest to the area of Stalingrad. Armed with only his wits, a smattering of courage, some unexpected help and lots of luck, he survives the brutal conditions with his joie de vivre and sense of humor intact. After the war, the author continues to use the skill and inventiveness that helped him survive. He becomes an eyewitness to much of the foolish decisions made by the freshly-minted communist economy which eventually led to the Hungarian uprising of 1956.
