Karen A. Frenkel | Family Treasures Lost and Found

All Holocaust survivor stories are precious because of the unlikely odds of escaping the Nazi’s comprehensive onslaught, but many have never been investigated, told, or understood.

In the new book, FAMILY TREASURES LOST & FOUND, journalist Karen A. Frenkel (a co-author with Isaac Asimov on the book, Robots: Machines in Man’s Image), chronicles the survival of her Polish Jewish parents, the journey to recover their history…and if her grandfather indeed hid jewels in their basement according to family legend. 

A gripping detective story and memoir, Frenkel’s investigation shows what it takes to survive against seemingly impossible obstacles amidst the Nazi war machine.
