Reseña del libro "My Handwriting Saved Me: Memoirs of A Holocaust Survivor"

Albert Halm, Holocaust survivor tells the fascinating story of his family carving out a meager life on the farm in the Carpathian Mountains, in what was then Czechoslovakia, taken away and being interned in three Nazi camps, and ultimately being saved from imminent death by his beautiful handwriting and design skills. He describes how he was able to secret away the true records of Jewish inmate deaths in the Ebensee Camp Hospital. Leaving the horrors of Europe he settles in Australia and commences to catch up on the education he missed out on, eventually entering the field of Diagnostic Radiography. As both a practitioner and a teacher he became renown, and dozens of his research papers are published around the world. He received the Order of Australia Medal for services to medicine in 1983. Using the mantra "We must never forget" he goes on to be the Founding President of the Australian Association of Jewish Holocaust Survivors.
