(2) YA Karl Stern, a blond and fair-skinned Jew, meets Max Schmeling, who offers him boxing lessons. Germany is transforming under Hitler's regime, and the changes affect every aspect of Karl's life. The story reaches its climax on Kristallnacht. With its sports component and direct narrative style, this is a meaty, readable account of the perils of life in Nazi Germany.
