Title: Must reading: Wallenberg is Here
Review: I have just read this fascinating historical novel by Carl Steinhouse. Having read many other materials on Nazism and the treatment of Jews in my teaching career, I have found the information, settings, and characters to be carefully portrayed. In the section on Auschwitz, I had to recall the feelings I experienced in visiting the site. While there, I tried to place myself in the role of one of the victims arriving by train and living in one of the barracks until my death. The author does give a realistic portrayal of the fate of so many humans. One must admire Wallenberg for the risks he took and the creative ways he used to help the Jews in Hungary. The author has presented the material in an easy to read and easy to follow manner. The book is one when you start reading it, you will stay up late into the night because Steinhouse has written a most interesting book on an important series of events in our history.
