It was the British Empire’s crown jewel, home to a quarter of the world’s population. In the span of just 50 years, that empire shattered.

During the last four years of Wiesel's life, he met frequently with Reich in New York, Chicago, and Florida - and spoke often on the phone - to discuss the subject that linked them: both Wiesel and Reich's father, Robert Reich, were liberated from Buchenwald death camp on April 11, 1945.
