Private Good Luck is the remarkable memoir of a teenage Jewish immigrant turned American infantryman in WWII fighting on the front lines to defend his newfound freedom, champion the honor of his people, and save the family he left behind. It’s not just an immigrant’s story. It’s not just a soldier's story. Nor is it just a Holocaust story. Above all, Private Good Luck teaches the dignity of difference, and will renew your faith in our shared humanity. Documented by extensive primary sources, many of which can be found exclusively in the hard and soft cover editions, it precedes — and provides the context for — an upcoming, remarkably comprehensive online collection of correspondence, documents, photos, and artifacts at the US Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. (ca. 2022).
