Overview
Private Good Luck is the remarkable true story of Irving Gluck, a young Jewish man who escaped Czechoslovakia just before the Holocaust—and returned as an American infantryman in WWII to fight the Nazis, defend the freedom he found in the U.S., and honor the family who could not escape.This Holocaust memoir traces Irving's journey from rural Europe to the battlefields of Germany, weaving together Jewish memory, wartime service, and the anguish of knowing that his father, siblings, nieces, and nephews were murdered in Auschwitz and Mauthausen.
Written by his son, Sherwin Gluck, and based on original letters, photographs, and firsthand accounts, the book provides a deeply personal perspective on Jewish resilience, moral courage, and the fight for justice across two continents.
The hardcover and paperback editions include exclusive material not available in the Kindle edition. This memoir also offers essential context for the upcoming digital collection being curated by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.
