Cornel: No, unfortunately this book doen't exist in English. Actually it's just an ebook, wich I compiled from Dr. Hermann Sternberg's original diary adding a front cover designed specially for this purpose by me. On the front cover you'll discover Hermann's pass from Bershad as well as one of Arnold Daghani's most famous paintings, showing the "Barack" in Cariera de Piatra camp in Transnistria:

Yosef Eshet: By any chance, do you know if Dr. Hermann Sternberg was captured by Arnold Daghani on his painting above?

Hardy: You are very right and your short analysis comes straight to the point. As far as I know, Dr. Hermann Sternberg testified against war criminals and for reparations in Germany in the 1960ies.

Yoram: Is the the diamond ring with the initials of the Emperor, which your grandfather got on the occasion of his graduation still owned by your family?

Warmest wishes to all of you!
