Many books have been written about the brutality and atrocities committed by the unbelievably evil government of Nazi Germany. The author of this book, born three years before Hitler and his henchmen came to power has now reached the age of 82 and is therefore part of a generation inexorably and seriously reducing in numbers. He feels compelled to recount his experiences of living through one of history's most traumatic epochs, not only in his own, largely dysfunctional family with dangerously anti-Nazi tendencies but somehow surviving the horrific terror-bombing of his own city, Hamburg, (the 'Hiroshima' of Germany) -which was one of the direct consequences of Hitler's brutal and merciless actions.
He bears no animosity towards such retaliatory action by allied forces but would like to document that the great majority of the German civilian population, at the time unaware of the horrendous massacres perpetrated by the SS and other organisations, suffered immeasurably large loss of life.
In a conflagration such as WW II, unleashed by a criminal and unscrupulous regime, no one emerges without blame for the 50 million souls that were lost! The author survived the inferno in his own way and is thankful for any day still given him.
Therefore, this is the story of one innocent child being born into and living through the whole of the tumultuous era of Nazi Germany, avoiding being contaminated by the evil around him.
