The events that set in motion the holocaust told through the story of one man, Adolf Fuchs. A remarkable story spanning six decades, eight countries and two continents. Inspired by true events, it is the timeless story of Adolf's will to survive and rebuild his life.

All proceeds from this book go to benefit World Jewish Relief and their work supporting people around the world.

We don't get to pick the times in which we live, and we don't get to shape the world events that test us to be our best or our worst. We live mistakenly believing that we are dancing on a large ballroom floor of our own design, with all the space we need to glide and twirl and spin. But in reality, we are dancing on the head of a pin, and any slight wind, this way or that, can push us off.

In late fall of 1938, the unification of Germany with Austria sent its Jewish communities into a tailspin and changed the nature of Austria's relationship with its Jewish citizens forever.

A former Jewish diplomat convinced a Home Office Secretary to rehabilitate a WWI training center on the English coast as a refugee camp to save German and Austrian Jewish men while secretly preparing Britain for impending war. 4,000 men were saved by cooperating with Jewish authorities in Berlin and Vienna under direction of Adolf Eichmann, architect of the Nazis' final solution.

"As a child of a Holocaust survivor, I have read many, many books and stories, but Michael Fox's ability to tell the story of horror, war, personal strength, and history, is unusually powerful. It is an important meshing of memoir with historical fiction for better understanding the unbelievable." Hannah Rosenthal, Former Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism in the US State Department

"Deeply researched with an historian's eye for detail and a chazan's ear for the drama of everyday life, Michael Fox's tribute to his people is eye opening, heart wrenching and proof, if one were needed, that family, like history, is a living thing..." Ben Sidran, Internationally acclaimed Jazz Pianist, singer/songwriter, producer, author and NPR radio host.

"In pursuing his own father's wartime experiences, Michael Fox, in a skillful blend of memoir and reconstructed context, has uncovered a heretofore untold Holocaust story thus deepening our understanding of this unparalleled tragic period."
Henry H. Sapoznik, Peabody award winning
producer "The Yiddish Radio Project,"
National Public Radio (2002)
