Synopsis

Book Description When a government turns criminal, there remains but one option: react with total disobedience. It took perseverance, foresight and courage to succeed. The author of this autobiography had done just that. From the age of ten until age twenty-two, the length of the Nazi empire, he defied the evil regime carrying his brother and parents along on the road of defiance to survival. Living in Berlin, behind enemy lines, was full of adventure. Declared fugitives, you had to expect arrest around every corner. There were many confrontations and last minute get-aways. Suspense never ceased. Food and shelter were difficult to obtain. Were it not for some courageous citizens daring to oppose Nazi law, the task would have been impossible. Even with assistance, our little group subsided on the verge of starvation. There was never a dull moment. The Gestapo after us on the ground and the Allied air force in the sky above saw to that. Experiencing over flights of thousands of bombers dropping ten thousand tons of TNT over your head at a time is unforgettable. The bombing went on relentlessly, American in the day, British at night. A miracle we survived.
