Compassion and humility radiate from Milt's pen. I followed him to Auschwitz twenty-five years after he wrote his evocative account of the 50th anniversary of the camp's liberation. His exhortation to listen to the stories of the survivors is a sample of his great writing: 'To turn away is to kill them a second time. But to listen is to confront the monster that lurks in the human soul.' A must read.-Malcolm Brabant, correspondent, PBS NewsHour; author, The Daughter of Auschwitz
Before he turned to writing for public television, Milton Nieuwsma traveled the world covering stories for the Chicago Tribune and other major newspapers. This book is a compendium of 21 of his best pieces-20 from the earth and one from hell. He takes you to the Arctic and the Antarctic; to the Amazon and the Nile; to Auschwitz, the scene of humanity's greatest crime, and to a rural Mississippi courtroom where the acquittal of Emmett Till's killers sparked the civil rights movement. Milt Nieuwsma is a master of his craft, writes Tom Stites. Its value still leaps out of the page at the reader.
MILTON NIEUWSMA is a two-time Emmy Award-winning writer and creator of the acclaimed PBS programs Surviving Auschwitz: Children of the Shoah and Inventing America: Conversations with the Founders.
TOM STITES is a former editor at the Chicago Tribune and New York Times.
