Allen is unflinching in his retelling of this monstrous era, but he manages to avoid writing a depressing narrative. Instead, Weigl, Fleck and their vaccines illuminate the inherent social complexities of science and truth and reinforce the overriding good of man. An unforgettable book., Allen's vivid depictions of the scientific community before and during the war and the treacherous parallel paths Weigl and Fleck traversed--gleaned in part from interviews with Holocaust survivors--are stirring. Considering all the energy channeled into mere survival, Allen's book makes you wonder what pinnacles of research might have been achieved by now, if not for the march of war., With masterful attention to detail, Arthur Allen has assembled a story of tragedy, courage, and scientific creativity. A fantastic laboratory, and a fantastic book., A Combination of Microbe Hunters, Schindler's List, and the Twilight Zone. I Couldn't Put It Down.

This quilt is historic and thousands have reproduced it or attempted to reproduce it. It is a treasure and the book is essential to make each of the 169 blocks in the center along with the triangle edging. This is not a quick or easy quilt but one you work a little at a time. It arrived as new and will be one of the highlights of my home creative library.
