Autorenporträt
About the author: Donald English is a retired Air Force Senior Master Sergeant who served honorably in the Korean and Vietnam wars. He grew up in a small coal mining town near Gary, West Virginia with his fourteen siblings during the Great Depression. At the age of 17, he enlisted in a segregated Air Force to find a better life and to support his family. During his career, he was stationed all over the world, including Germany. He started writing NG173 nearly 40 years ago after learning about the struggles of black Germans in Nazi Germany. This book is the result of decades of his research about those black Germans and a lifetime of his experience as a black American.
