Description

The song and dance of The Sound of Music... seasoned with the terror of war.

We Escaped plunges the reader into the extraordinary World War II escapades of an ordinary couple and their children as they first escape from Nazi-occupied Holland, eventually making their way to America, where the author - Alex - was able to grow up amid the joy and love of everyday family life.

Within weeks of Germany's conquest of Holland, the family must flee the dragnet of the Gestapo, which is arresting all Dutch military officers. As far as Alex's father can see, the only way out is through Germany, and from there it's a tortuous and terrifying journey through Switzerland, Vichy France, Spain, and Portugal, with the Gestapo a threat at every turn.

"The story's a reminder of how precious freedom is and how much it needs to be protected. It is also a view of a loyal soldier's commitment to his country, and of a family's commitment to each other. Its descriptions take you from Holland to America to Canada and the Caribbean, all as impacted by World War II. It's a book you'll remember long after you finish reading it." - Five Star Amazon Review!
