A fascinating view of the “other side” in World War II, on the domestic front. Born in Berlin, Dorothea Gutzeit (1921 – 2005 ) spent her formative years in Nazi Germany and in her war-torn city. She then forged a new life in Canada.
“An amazing family story of courage and immigration." — Siegfried Hansch (German-Canadian Business Association)
“An authentic and absorbing account of one woman's courage, tracing her life from early 20th century Germany to a new and challenging life in Canada,
drawing on diaries, certificates and various documents, along with memories shared." —H. Zobl (Professor Emeritus, Carleton University)
Daughter Irene Riznek (Koenigsberger) was born in Germany and came to Canada as a child. She prepared this autobiography based on historical certificates, documents and Annenpas records, and on her mother’s notes and their many conversations. She has a son and a daughter, and lives in Ontario.
