About
Reader Reviews

Very refreshing to read a book that goes to the heart and soul of a real person, interweaving personal joys with tragic sorrows during the World War II era. Against All Odds - The Ray Firmani Story is based on true life events pulled from the memories of a man who survived to tell his story! Highly recommended.
