Book Description
This inspirational true story of bravery and resilience is derived from interviews with Holocaust survivor John Saunders -- a staggering tale of one child surviving the war through wit and guile with dreams of emigrating to America. Born in Stanislaw�w, Poland as a Jewish boy with blonde hair and blue eyes, John is warned by his father to keep his secrets, or he will become a slave to them. Pretending to be Christian, John fools first the Soviets, then the Ukrainians and Nazis, as they force his family into the ghetto and then on to Pawiak Prison and the concentration camps. Always one step ahead of the Nazis, John comes of age carrying his secrets, outfoxing his captors as he escapes Auschwitz-Birkenau, making eccentric allies and evading the horrors around him. With a child's charmed resolve, he survives the war, only to set out alone on the hardest journey of his life: emigration to the United States, and the path to citizenship. An immersive retelling in first-person, present tense, John's story grows up with him. Emotional and ultimately uplifting, MASTER OF SECRETS is equally suited for a new generation of readers first discovering the Holocaust and those looking to expand their understanding further. MASTER OF SECRETS is a testament to the power of children to survive the impossible with dreams of the future.

The Master Shipwright's Secrets
Author: Richard Endsor
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472838394
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
AWARDED THE ANDERSON MEDAL 2020 Inspired by the recent discovery of mathematically calculated digital plans for a fourth-rate ship by the Deptford master shipwright, John Shish, The Master Shipwright's Secrets is an illustrated history of Restoration shipbuilding focused on the Tyger, one of the smaller but powerful two-deck warships of the period. It examines the proceedings of King Charles II in deciding the types of ship he wanted and his relationship with his master shipwrights. This fascinating book reveals the many secrets of Charles II's shipwrights through an analysis of John Shish's plans for the Tyger, revealing innovative practical calculations which differ significantly from the few contemporary treatises on the subject and the complicated process of constructing the moulds necessary to make the ship's frame. All the other duties performed by the master shipwrights, such as repairing ships, controlling their men and keeping up with the latest inventions are also discussed in detail. The Master Shipwright's Secrets is replete with beautiful and detailed illustrations of the construction of the Tyger and explores both its complicated history and its complex rebuilding, complete with deck plans, internal sections, and large-scale external shaded drawings. The title also explores associated ships, including another fourth-rate ship, the Mordaunt, which was purchased into the Navy at the time and underwent a dimensional survey by John Shish. A rare contemporary section drawing of another fourth-rate English ship and constructional drawings of Shish's later fourth-rate ship, St Albans, are also included.
