House of Ghosts by Lawrence Kaplan ISBN 978-0-9799495-2-4 $17.95 NOW AVAILABLE In the spring of 1944, word of the Nazi's "Final Solution" for European Jewry leaks to the free world. As 300,000 Hungarian Jews await their fate in the Auschwitz killing center, American bombers fly overhead en route to their target less than a dozens miles away. One bomb delivered to the gas chamber could render the murder apparatus useless. Why did Assistant Secretary of War John J. McCloy refuse to order it? Was it McCloy's anti-Semitism? Did he fear a tidal wave of Jewish death camp survivors flooding into Palestine and the possible loss of Saudi Arabian aviation gasoline needed in the coming war with Stalin's Russia? House of Ghosts takes the reader back to the turbulent years prior to American involvement in WWII: its anti-Semitism, the America First isolationist movement with Charles Lindbergh, and a Brooklyn Jewish self-defense group battling for their people's survival. |
