HARRY HAFT Survivor of Auschwitz, Challenger of Rocky Marciano

This exceptional audiobook proves that there are still unique stories of Holocaust survival to hear. Alan Haft's biography of his father, Harry Haft, who used brawn and boxing skills to survive under the Nazis, including imprisonment at Auschwitz, is one listeners will long remember. Narrator Price Waldman tells Harry's story with a sense of rage, determination to survive, and even love, allowing the story to excel on audio in a way that print books cannot match. When Harry finally reaches America, he confronts new challenges in his attempt to become the heavyweight champion. Waldman's delivery is flawless, including his tone and ability to convey Polish accents. The audiobook delivers its punches carefully, packing a ton of power into a production less than six hours long. D.J.S.
