Escape from Tyranny

The Story of Four Brothers

Beschreibung

A true tale of survival. Four brothers - Erwin, Walter, John and Bruno Sax - flee Czechoslovakia ahead of the Nazi German takeover. They enlist in the British Army, are captured and spend four years interned in a Prisoner of War camp in Poland, always under threat of death for being Jewish, and fearful for family members who had stayed behind.

Autor

Geoff Trigg is a retired local government engineer, born in 1950, in Warrnambool, Victoria, with a strong interest in his own family's history. His professional career left him little time to research his first wife's family history until retirement. Increased connections and detailed information from her extended family in Israel, Canada and the United States of America brought together a combination of skills and passion to include all available information regarding these extraordinary men in one book for wider family use and study. Geoff's interest in Australian and European history, conditions faced by immigrants to Australia from post-war Europe and the disaster to the Jewish people caused by the Holocaust was focused by his wife's written memories and stories about her father and his brothers. This was expanded with the information and photos supplied from her cousins and uncles.
