Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

This is Norman H. Finkelstein's eleventh nonfiction book for young readers. "Like all parents," Finkelstein says, "I enjoyed telling my children how much better life was when I was their age. The idea for The Way Things Never Were emerged when they began challenging my heroic tales of walking fifteen miles to school in waist-deep snow."

Finkelstein is a school librarian for the Brookline, Massachusetts, public school system and a part-time instructor at Hebrew College. Among his titles are Remember Not to Forget: A Memory of the Holocaust; Theodor Herzl: Architect of a Nation; The Emperor General: A Biography of Douglas MacArthur; Sounds in the Air: The Golden Age of Radio; Thirteen Days/Ninety Miles: The Cuban Missile Crisis; With Heroic Truth: The Life of Edward R. Murrow; Heeding the Call: Jewish Voices in America's Civil Rights Struggle; and Friends Indeed: The Special Relationship Between Israel and the United States. Norman Finkelstein lives in Framingham, Massachusetts.
