Description
|
|
|
|
Despite his worldwide reputation as the father of modern psychology, Sigmund Freud's security in his native Vienna changed overnight when Hitler's forces annexed Austria on March 12, 1938. His books had already been burned across Germany, and now he and his family were at immediate risk. They suffered a period of house arrest and two months of uncertainty while friends worked to secure papers for emigration to England. Yet after becoming refugees in Britain, as Helen Fry chronicles here, the Freuds' story takes a fascinating turn, as both Freud's son Martin and his grandson Walter enlisted in the British Forces, going on to fight for Britain behind enemy lines in Austria.
