Overcoming a Twin Evil

Fire of Liberty

The Toronto Sun's veteran columnist Peter Worthington has an excellent review of Survival: A Refugee Life, which is a memoir of Fred Bruemmer's epic fight for survival under the dual menace of the Nazis and the Soviets who wreaked havoc on his native country Latvia and his family during WWII. What's wonderful about this book is that it's a testament that no matter how many problems or dangers are thrown before an individual they seem to find a way to persevere. So if you want a great book on this dual menace and a testament of an individual's ability to beat all the odds and survive to tell about it, then Survival: A Refugee Life is a good pick. So check it out.
