Jewish Buffalo

The Politzer Saga A housefire in 2011. A box survives. Its contents became the catalyst for a quest whose seeds were planted in 1983 – the day Linda Ambrus Broenniman learned that her Catholic father was Jewish and what little family history she knew was a lie. Searching for truth, Linda pieced together the astonishing story of eight generations of her Jewish ancestors — the Politzer family — their remarkable lives lost to her.
