by Francis W. Hoeber (Author)

Johannes Hoeber left Nazi Germany for America on Nov. 12, 1938. His wife Elfriede & their 9-year-old daughter Susanne were unable to leave until Sept. 1939. Fifty years, later Johannes & Elfriede's son found an old folder containing the long letters they exchanged during the many months they were separated. In these letters, Elfriede describes the worsening situation in Germany & Johannes describes his flight from Europe & his excited entry into American life. This volume collects 135 of these letters with an intro., extensive notes, & an epilogue that sets the letters in the context of their time. The letters tell the story of a couple driven from their home by the Nazis & forced to make a new life in a new country. An important historical resource that reads like a novel. Photos.
