Never the Last Road is the dramatic story of the survival of Noah Podberesky and his future wife, Mina Milikowsky, two Jewish victims of the Holocaust. It is a story of individual strength, bravery, ingenuity and repeated instances of good fortune (or, as some might see it, the intervention of a greater force), as well as the compassionate acts of several non-Jews that risked their lives to help Jews survive. This real life story goes beyond just survival, however. Mina overcame being wounded and spent two years fighting the Nazis with the Russian Partisans. Noah began the war in the Polish Army and later served in the Russian Army and with distinction in a Partisan Unit. Several times he narrowly escaped German imprisonment and massacres. In the end Noah and Mina defied the Nazis and refused to be victims. In recounting their tale, Never the Last Road portrays courageous Jews who overcame the loss of all they held dear, resisted the Nazis and made new and fulfilling lives for themselves and their offspring.

  • Through the years with prince charming
    Paul du Quenoy
    The past decade has overflowed in a raging stream of contradictions. Old certainties have yielded to relentless insecurity over a time when much of the human experience got immeasurably better even as many things only ever seemed to get worse. As Paul du Quenoy’s globetrotting criticism reveals, the arts were in a ferment that matched profound and yet totally unpredicted social...

These writers favored combining Italian-style music with the wider range of musical genres and scenic variety of French opera. As the music critic and commentator George W. Loomis shows in this groundbreaking volume, the you...
