Life in Hell

There are few more tragic examples of man’s cruelty to other men than the Holocaust, and few more riveting documents about attempting to survive such cruelty than Anne Frank’s diary. For those who don’t already know the story, Anne Frank was a young Jewish girl who, along with her family, hid from the Nazis in a cramped Amsterdam attic for more than two years during World War II. Only her father survived the Holocaust, and he later published Anne’s diaries to help make certain that the world remembered the atrocities perpetrated by Nazi hands.
