This is the true story of how one boy pulled off the greatest hoax ever on the upper echelons of Nazi command, ultimately saving not only himself, but his brothers. I Shall Live follows the gripping tale of Henry Orenstein and his siblings as they are moved throughout five different concentration camps.
Orenstein's lucid prose recreates this horrific time in history, and vividly portrays the constant struggle for survival. His description of their roles in the fake Chemical Commando sheds new light on an incredible and generally unknown event in the history of the Holocaust.
This edition of I Shall Live contains new evidence about this false Commando, including letters signed to and from Himmler himself.
