About this ebook
On October 14, 1943, over 700 Jews carried out a daring escape from the Nazi extermination camp at Sobibor, Poland. The standard histories of the event, however, leave out a crucial detail about how they managed such a feat against overwhelming odds. It turns out that they got some outside help from a completely unexpected source.
Author
David Fischler
I'm a pastor in the Evangelical Presbyterian Church, currently serving in Woodbridge, Virginia. I'm a long-time horror fan, and have wanted to write fiction for years. "Ezcape from Sobibor" is my first finished effort.
