"The book under review is the first volume of Steinhaus' recollections and notes. ... Many footnotes make the reading easier. The book will be of great interest both for historians of mathematics as well as for all wishing to learn (from a witness) the history of those unquiet and difficult times in Europe." (Roman Murawski, zbMATH 1331.01002, 2016)
