About the Book

Operating under the theory that one needed to be seen in order not to be noticed, the Jewish Mendelsohn family became not just ordinary Polish Catholics, but the Zamojskis, a Polish family of noble lineage. Through sheer chutzpah and bravado, Robert Melson's mother acquired false identity papers that would disguise herself and her family, and allow them to survive the Holocaust. Robert Melson is the current president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars. He is a professor of political science at Purdue University, Indiana, and the author of the award-winning Revolution and Genocide: On the Origins of the Armenian Genocide and the Holocaust. Michael Berenbaum, former president of the Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, is co-producer of the Academy Award-winning documentary One Survivor Remembers: The Gerda Weissman Klein Story and the author of Witness to the Holocaust and other books.

Review :
"One of the most unusual and boldest tales of survival that we have. It is quite simply a great reading adventure." Christopher R. Browning, author of Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland "False Papers is an extraordinary story of a family's ingenious struggle to outsmart the Nazis against great odds. Robert Melson has brought us the wit, humor, terror, and honesty of his parents in a way that engages the reader page after page. This is a deeply human and morally important book." Peter Balakian, author of The Black Dog of Fate
