I've written and self-published a book pertaining to the holocaust. My goal was to educate, inspire and bear further witness to an unprecedented period of time. The book reads as a page-turning historical fiction but, alas there is no fiction. Even the names are authentic. It is successfully selling in several Chapters/Indigo branches in Toronto and elsewhere. I've spoken on several occasions about the book both at Chapters, other stores and at schools to very receptive audiences.
