When the World Closed Its Doors

Struggling to Escape Nazi-occupied Europe

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

At the beginning of World War II, the United States and other countries erected a "paper wall" - a bureaucratic maze that prevented all but a small number of Jewish refugees from emigrating from Nazi-occupied Europe. When the World Closed Its Doors tells the true story of a young couple who, like many European Jews, were caught between the Nazis and the "paper wall."
