Saved! Story of heroism, patriotism Warsaw Ghetto Nazi-fighter's history documented
This caught my eye today:
It's a story of unfaltering patriotism, heroism, loyalty and military history, and it almost was lost.
"Quiet Hero: Secrets from My Father's Past" by journalist Rita Cosby tells the story of her father's work as a teen on behalf of his Nazi-threatened homeland in Poland.
It also tells the story of the bond that was built between the father and daughter when she convinced him to tell the stories linked to the souvenirs of war she found among her mother's estate.
It almost didn't happen.
Cosby, an Emmy award-winning journalist, TV host and New York Times best-selling author, had been a near-stranger to her father after he abruptly announced one day when she was a teen that he was leaving the family.
She knew he had left Poland after World War II, and his body bore the statements of many scars, but he always had refused to answer questions about them.
