To See You Again, by Betty Schimmel

Another great story of the mayhem the Nazis caused in the lives of so many innocents in W.W. II. This story is true.  A great love story.  Two young people who lost everything, survived everything, but got sidetracked in the process.  I’m not sure I’d have made the same eventual choice the author did.  It’s haunting every step of the way.  Of course families couldn’t believe, or even imagine, what the work camps really were.  Nor could they fathom that they would be taken from their county farms, town and villages, and large cities and lose their fortunes and each other.  The clamp down on their freedoms were gradual and they hoped the Nazi’s would be stopped as the war swept on. Even the eventual freedom of living many years in the United States, marrying and raising a family couldn’t end the love the two had for each other, but…as I said, I’m not sure I’d have made the same eventual choice.  An 8.5 out of 10.
