Chaim Besser (M / Poland, 1927), Holocaust survivor

Biography

Born in Lukow (near Lublin), Poland. Children of Icek (Icchak) and Maria (Miriam). The family fled to the Soviet Union. Chaim arrived in Israel on February 18, 1943.

Book : Children of Zion (1994; ET 1998), by Henryk Grynberg

The book is based on 73 testimonies – "Protocols" – taken and registered from the children immediately after their arrival to the Promised Land. The protocols of the children's testimonies are in the archives of the Hoover Institution, Documentation Box 197, Folders 1-4, Polish Information Center - Jerusalem, at Stanford University, in the collection "Poland - Ministry of Information and reports of Jewish Deportees." They were the basis of Grynberg's book, which enfolds the historical events of this less explored chapter of the Holocaust through the eyes of the little Jewish refugees from Poland and their struggle for survival in the Soviet Union.
