How Scottish Jews discovered forgotten Romanian community

AUTHOR and editor Sharon Mail tells the story of a forgotten community of Holocaust survivors in her latest book.

An Unbreakable Bond: The Târgu Mures Holocaust Survivors and their Scottish Saviours (Next Chapter, Ł12.99) is a book Jewish Telegraph Scotland correspondent Sharon believed needed writing following her first visit to the community in Transylvania, Romania, in April 2018.

Sharon - whose first book, We Could Possibly Comment: Ian Richardson Remembered, was published in 2009 - said: “For years in my role for the Jewish Telegraph, I had been aware of the wonderful work being done by a small group of people here in Glasgow, to support the concentration camp and labour camp survivors over there.”
