Gulag #7 is a gritty account of Karl Heinz Lawrenz's life from birth in Pomerania, Germany, through his retirement at Highland, Illinois, USA. In 1943, at the age of 15, Karl was captured by the Russians while trying to escape their advancing front and was sent to a Siberian Gulag. There he almost died several times. This is his account of his survival, return to his family, immigration to the United States and finally his retirement in Highland, Illinois, USA.
