As the war unfolds through his eyes, we are privileged to meet an inspirational soul of indomitable will, courage and compassion. At age 12 Kulski is recruited as a soldier in the clandestine Underground Army by his Boy Scout leader, and at age 13 enters the Warsaw Ghetto on a secret mission. Arrested by the Gestapo at age 14 and sentenced to Auschwitz, he is rescued and joins the commandos. At age 15, Kulski fights in the 1944 Warsaw Uprising. He ends the war as a German POW, finally risking a dash for freedom onto an American truck instead of waiting for Soviet \"liberation.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction by Rabbi Michael Schudrich, Chief Rabbi ofPoland  Foreword by Lech Walesa, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Preface  Publisher's Note List of Maps List of Digital Extras  Chapter 1  AGE 10:1939The War Begins Chapter 2  AGE 11:1940My Own Private War Against the Germans Chapter 3  AGE 12:1941Recruited into the Underground Army Chapter 4  AGE 13:1942Secret Mission into the Ghetto Chapter 5  AGE 14: 1943Ghetto Uprising; Caught by theGestapo Chapter 6  AGE 15: 1944The Warsaw Uprising Chapter 7 AGE16: 1945German POW; Escape to Freedom   Epilogue   Afterword by Captain Mieczyslaw Morawski, Commander, NinthCompany Commandos   Appendix 1: Family, Friends, and Polish Leaders   Appendix 2: German Occupiers   Historical Horizon: Poland in World War IIA BriefSummary   Index   Discussion Questions  Author Bio    List of Maps:  Europe - 1939 Poland - 1939 Invasion of Poland - September 1939 Occupied Poland, 1939-1941 Warsaw, 1939-1944  Warsaw Environs - 1940 Warsaw Ghetto - 1940 Warsaw Ghetto - 1943 Uprising 1944 Warsaw Uprising: The Beginning, Early August 1944 1944 Warsaw Uprising: Zoliborz, August 21-22, 1944 1944 Warsaw Uprising: Zoliborz, September 14-16, 1944 1944 Warsaw Uprising: The End, Early October 1944 Europe - Summer 1940      List of Digital Extras:      Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE  Chapter 1 - 1939  Warsaw Will Rebuild!
