520    Few are familiar with one of the Holocaust's most 
       monstrous acts, the systematic murder of about 5,000 
       Jewish residents in a Nazioccupied Polish town, 
       Trochenbrod, on August 11, 1942. Of the 33 who escaped 
       death, only one person remains to describe these events--
       Betty Gold. Twelve-year-old Betty and her family hid 
       inside a secret wall built by her father and, when it 
       seemed safe, crept toward the forest, which became their 
       home. In part one of Beyond Trochenbrod, Gold provides a 
       brief history of Trochenbrod, the only all-Jewish town to 
       exist outside of biblical Israel, and describes a series 
       of cherished childhood experiences before the arrival of 
       Soviet and, later, Nazi occupiers. Part two centers on the
       family's struggles against hunger, pain, despair, and the 
       constant fear of being discovered while living in the 
       forest. How the family survived against these and other 
       threats is nothing short of miraculous. Their unlikely 
       rescue, stay at a displaced persons camp, and journey to 
       America are the subjects of part three. In the fourth and 
       final part of her memoir, Gold recounts her difficult 
       adjustment to her new home in Cleveland and discusses how 
       her Trochenbrod experiences have transformed her life and 
       the lives of others. Man's inhumanity is undeniable in 
       Beyond Trochenbrod, but so is humanity's capacity to 
       prevail in spite of unimaginable odds.
