In the aftermath of the Holocaust, the world was left reeling. Millions of people had been killed, and millions more were displaced. Among those who survived, many were sent to Siberia, a vast and unforgiving land where they faced further hardship and persecution.

From The Furnace To The Freezer tells the story of these forgotten survivors. Through interviews with survivors and their families, as well as extensive research, author Martin Gilbert paints a vivid and heartbreaking picture of their lives.

The book begins with the liberation of the Nazi concentration camps in 1945. For many survivors, this was a moment of hope and joy. But for others, it was just the beginning of a new nightmare.

In the chaos of the postwar period, many survivors were rounded up by the Soviet authorities and sent to Siberia. They were accused of being traitors or collaborators, and they were subjected to forced labor and starvation.

The conditions in the Siberian camps were horrific. The prisoners were forced to work long hours in freezing temperatures, and they were given little food or medical care. Many died of disease, starvation, or exposure.

Those who survived the camps were often left with physical and emotional scars that would never heal. They were haunted by the memories of what they had endured, and they struggled to adjust to life in a world that had changed forever.

From The Furnace To The Freezer is a powerful and moving tribute to the forgotten Holocaust survivors who were sent to Siberia. It is a story of resilience, hope, and the indomitable human spirit.
