By the end of the Second World War, nine remained. Like Anne Frank, Israel Unger and his family hid for two years in an attic crawl space above the Dagnan flour mill in Tarnow. Their stove was the chimney that went up through the attic; their windows were cracks in the wall. Survival depended on the food the adults were able to forage outside at night. Against all odds, they emerged alive. Now, decades later, here is Unger's \"\"unwritten diary.\"\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAt the end of the war, following a time as people \u003ci\u003esans pays\u003c\/i\u003e, the Unger family immigrated to Canada. After discovering a love of chemistry, Israel Unger had a stellar academic career, married, and raised a family in Fredericton, New Brunswick. \u003ci\u003eThe Unwritten Diary of Israel Unger\u003c\/i\u003e is as much a Holocaust story as it is a story of a young immigrant making every possible use of the opportunities Canada had to offer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis revised edition includes a reproduction of Dagnan's List, a list of Jewish slave labourer similar Schindler's List, made famous in the Steven Spielberg movie. The name of Israel Unger's father appears on the list, in which Dagnan declares that Unger is an \"\"essential worker\"\" - a ruse that may have saved the father's life. This recently discovered document proves that Israel Unger's memory of this key part of the story was accurate. A new postscript details the importance of this startling document.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eThe Unwritten Diary of Israel Unger\u003c\/i\u003e by Carolyn Gammon and Israel Unger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eForeword\u003c\/b\u003e by Israel Unger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: The Only Jews in Poland\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSrulik is born in Tarnow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWysiedlenia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Father's Courage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDagnam's Flour Mill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Hideout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Only Jews in Poland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKissing a Soviet Soldier's Boot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatzos from America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Sans Pays\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Kielce Pogrom and a Gash on the Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBecoming \"\"Orphans\"\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAix-les-Bains\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSans Pays in Paris\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharlie and Sydney in London\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack to Paris, Quartier Pé\u003cbr\u003ere Lachaise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisions of Canada: Mounties, Snow, and Sheepskin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III: Canadian Through and Through\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn Airplane, a Stevedore, and His Plymouth: Arriving at Pier 21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome à\u003cbr\u003e la Mordecai Richler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIch hab dir gegebn lebn zwei mol—\u003cbr\u003e\"\"I gave you life twice\"\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Yeshiva and Bnei Akiva\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCanada Through and Through\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Octet Rule\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollecting Butcher Bills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKafkaesque Encounters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Brother Charlie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart IV: The Bubble Counter\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeaving Home: Montreal to Fredericton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bubble Counter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhotochemistry in Texas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnder the Chuppah in Minto, New Brunswick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Young Professor—\u003cbr\u003eFrom Texas to Saint John\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eALS—\u003cbr\u003eMy Father's Death\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharlie's Troubles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Mark for Canada\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharon and Sheila\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Best Granny\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart V: Dean Unger\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDean Unger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStruggles with Charlie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Mother and Her Backbone of Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarlene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaking Up for Lost Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAirplane Accident\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTelling My Story\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart VI: \"\"They Know My Name is Srulik!\"\"\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn to Tarnow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Modern Righteous Gentile: Meeting Adam Bartosz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeeting Mr. Dagnan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkorupa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKalman Goldberg—\u003cbr\u003eOutside the Hideout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRescue Children, Inc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRyglice and Dabrowa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eState Archives and Registry Office\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Birth House\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatzevahs for my Family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"\"They know my name is Srulik!\"\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"\"How did the Holocaust affect you?\"\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAfterword: Writing The Unwritten Diary\u003c\/b\u003e by Carolyn Gammon \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003ePostscript\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDagnan's List\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBibliography\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wilfrid Laurier University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52637466820888,"sku":"9781771120111","price":21.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-unwritten-diary-of-israel-unger-paperback-softback-9781771120111","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
