Thanks Karen.

That sounds interesting Karen. I've just finished a book by Denis Avey who was a prisoner of war in World War 2 and actually swapped places with a guy in Auschwitz to see for himself what conditions there were like. He also describes the trauma of the post war years.

This thread is being closed and locked. Not enough non-fiction books we're suggested and the feedback was virtually non-existent. As I'd said before under our current book selection process feedback on the suggestions your fellow members make is the backbone of the process. Without feedback we have no means of knowing if anyone other than the person who suggested the book will actually read and discuss it.

We can try this again in a few weeks with a new thread. As of right now we have "Arguably" to discuss and "Guns, Germs and Steel" was pulled from the archives and made an active forum again. Hopefully you can join those discussions.
