Life in a Jewish Family An Autobiography, 1891-1916 (The Collected Works of Edith Stein, vol. 1) / Edith Stein (Teresa Benedicta of the Cross) Translated by Josephine Koeppel OCD

This initial volume of the Collected Works of Edith Stein offers, for the first time in English, the unabridged biography of Edith Stein (Teresa Benedicta of the Cross), depicting her life as a child and young adult. Her text ends abruptly because the Nazi SS arrested, then deported, her to the Auschwitz concentration camp in 1942.
