First-time published author Arlene Burrows paternal grandparents' families were residents of Chelm, Poland for generations. Seventy-two of them were murdered in the Holocaust. This book is a record of Burrow’s journey to discover what happened to them including their journey to Israel and later, to Newark, NJ. Burrows returned to Chelm in 2014, to research the archives in Poland and say Kaddish, an ancient Jewish prayer recited for the dead, at the camps. In the process, she found many remarkable stories as well as survivors and descendants around the world.
