My Story
By Lonia Kirshenbaum Mosak
As told to Lester Jacobson
This book is dedicated to my family, who have made this long journey worthwhile, so they should know what it was like.
It’s impossible to explain, and impossible to describe, what happened there. There’s not enough ink and paper in this world to describe it. It was hell on earth.”
Introduction
My name is Lonia Kirshenbaum Mosak. I was born in 1922 in the small eastern Polish town of Nowy Dwor. A year later, my family moved to Ciechanow, a medieval Polish city 65 kilometers north.
