Title: Unfulfilled potential
Review: I bought this book because of its description as the story of a woman who, at 50, received her doctorate and became a Holocaust scholar. Instead it is a sledgehammer of a book filled with amazing details that are a encomium to her late husband. Very disappointing, as she obviously has a lot to offer in her own right, but hardly discusses her own thoughts and motivations with any depth. Filled with details (page upon page about household management but less than ten pages regarding her own graduate curriculum) that detract rather than lend substance to her story. I hope she reflects in print sometime her own considerable development as a scholar. An index would have helped pull some of the disparate pieces together.
