The Unsung Family Hero is the first book-length narrative work by Dr Paul Gardner AM.
Dr Gardner, a retired academic, is the son of German Jewish refugees who emigrated to Australia in 1938. He took up genealogical research and has had several papers published in Avotaynu, the US-based international journal of Jewish genealogy.
“A gripping story of how extraordinary times converted ordinary people into heroes. …. This book transforms the history of a global war and monstrous crimes against humanity into personal story of courage, risk and heart-trembling fear.” The Hon. Michael Kirby AC CMG
