Description

An uplifting, non-fiction Holocaust memoir that reads like a history novel and Hollywood thriller. Dozens of nail biting events are seamlessly tied together, facilitating the captivating story of Viennese newlyweds Kurt and Hennie Reiner fleeing the Nazi scourge. Adventure and excitement dominate the story as the Reiner fugitives undergo a series of amazingly narrow escapes from German pursuit. Kurt is arrested and put in the Dachau concentration camp. Hennie meets with the Gestapo at their Nazi headquarters in Vienna to secure his release. Farm labor, clandestine border crossings, and a French prison provide further story of dozens of harrowing predicaments. Despite the odds against survival, their mutual commitment and love would not permit them to give up hope. The memoir is a powerful reminder of America's image as a nation of freedom to all seeking a better life. Kurt Reiner goes on to become a senior design engineer for Republic Aviation's F-105 Thunderjet and Grumman Corporation's "Lunar Excursion Module," the landing capsule that brought Neil Armstrong to the moon. His success as an aeronautical engineer provides ample evidence that Germany's loss was America's gain. Edgy throughout, the story is educational, alternately funny, sad, chilling, and romantic. The narrative is supplemented with dozens of documents and pictures that provide historical perspective and authenticate the reported events. For leisure reading and/or high school and college Holocaust curriculums.
