The Ultimate Survivor
Author: J. Dennis Marek
Publisher: Bookbaby
ISBN: 9781543919868
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This is the story of a man born in rural Poland in 1923. During his childhood, the world changed for his country. In September, 1939, Germany invaded Poland, destroyed its weak armed forces and controlled the country for the next six years. With that invasion, the life of Wladyslaw (Wally) Pieszka was never the same.From being required to work at Auschwitz and being drafted into the German Army, to surviving the battle for Stalingrad in 1942 and escaping to England in 1943, his reasons for survival were either the Grace of God, pure luck, or the mere desire to live. His story is almost unbelievable but for the rare photographs and documents he and his mother were able to maintain. Being forced into manhood while still a boy is not something one foresees when growing up. This is the history of one man who wore the uniforms of both Nazi Germany and the Allied Forces in World War II; a man forced to work at Auschwitz during its years of horror; a soldier who fought in the bloodiest battle in the history of warfare, Stalingrad. After having escaped from the German Army and completing his service for the Allied Forces, only then did he learn that his family home had been burned to the ground by the invading Russian forces. He could not go back home. He remained in Scotland until 1956. After working in coal mines, farms, and later becoming a painter with his own company, Wally decided it was time to try a new country and came to Chicago, barely missing sailing on the ship destined not to arrive in this new country. Wally Pieszka is a Polish man but yet an American man, with more lives than the proverbial cat. His life in America found permanent employment as a right-hand assistant to the President of the Wrigley Company in Chicago and that led to his meeting and marrying the love of his life, Mary. While some of Wally's memories have gaps, this book is being completed as Wally approaches his 95th year. While some of these names and events have faded, no stories here were embellished. If he didn't remember, it does not appear. This is Wally's story.

Category : True Crime
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
The basis for the Apple TV+ show Black Bird. In with the Devil presents the true story of a young man destined for greatness on the football field—until a few wrong turns led him to a ten-year prison sentence. He was offered an impossible mission: Coax a confession out of a fellow inmate, a serial killer, and walk free. Jimmy Keene grew up outside of Chicago. Although he was the son of a policeman and rubbed shoulders with the city's elite, he ended up on the wrong side of the law and was sentenced to ten years with no chance of parole. Just a few months into his sentence, Keene was approached by the prosecutor who put him behind bars. He had convicted a man named Larry Hall for abducting and killing a fifteen-year-old. Although Hall was suspected of killing nineteen other young women, there was a chance he could still be released on appeal. If Keene could get him to confess to two murders, there would be no doubt about Hall's guilt. In return, Keene would get an unconditional release from prison. But he could also get killed. A story that gained national notoriety, this is Keene's powerful tale of peril, violence, and redemption.
