About this listen

George A. Karp, a Viennese Jewish doctor, tells the story of his family's miraculous escape from Nazi Europe. He travels across Vichy France and over the Pyrenees where his finally rescued by the French resistance - the Maquis. The Karp family's survival required incredible luck, perseverance and determination. They also depended on the help of the Jewish relief agencies, the Unitarians, and the Quakers. But most importantly, the Karp family's livelihood depended on the altruistic acts of strangers who risked their own lives to save them. This personal memoir is an uplifting and positive tale about a family that successfully works together to survive the war.
