About the Book

Live the exciting Holocaust story of heroes, Jewish and Gentile, who risked everything sneaking into and out of concentration camps and the Warsaw Ghetto to bring the news of the slaughter. Go inside the State Department to experience American bureaucrats, knowing of the mass murders of Jews, nevertheless prevented Jewish immigration and concealed, downplayed or outright denied what they knew was happening while the President, for political reasons, did nothing.

About the Author

Carl Steinhouse, a retired lawyer, was a federal prosecutor for the United States Department of Justice for 15 years after which he went into private practice specializing in class actions, white-collar crime, and civil and criminal trials.  In the early fifties, he served as an intelligence analyst in the Army Counterintelligence Corps.

Mr. Steinhouse was Vice Chairman of the Antitrust Section of the American Bar Association, and on the editorial boards of two Bureau of National Affairs publications.  He also wrote and edited books on grand jury practice, criminal trial practice, and criminal juries and a frequent lecturer at ABA National Institutes and video courses on grand jury and criminal trial practice.  In 1996, he won the best short story award from the Naples Writers’ Conference.

In the 80’s and 90’s he was active on an international level for the National Conference on Soviet Jewry, making several trips to Jerusalem and Helsinki on fact-finding missions and to the Soviet Union to aid Refusniks (those Jews the Soviets refused to let emigrate).  A board member of the Cleveland Anti-Defamation League until 1999 and formerly on ADL’s National Legal Affairs and National Fact Finding Committees, he remains active in ADL matters, including monitoring activities of hate groups.

Mr. Steinhouse, had lost family in German-occupied territory during World War II, and was personally affected by the Holocaust.  This is the fourth book in his Holocaust series, the first three being Wallenberg is Here!, Righteous and Courageous, and Improbable Heroes.  The books received rave reviews from Holocaust scholars and authors.  Steinhouse used his considerable research skills, honed by thirty-five years in law enforcement and litigation practice, to marshal the facts surrounding various improbable saviors of Jews.

The author is happily married and lives in Naples, Florida, where he does his writing.
