"In 1936 Sybil Bannister, a young Englishwoman, married a handsome German medical student and followed him to live as a housewife in the north-eastern city of Danzig (Gdansk). Deeply in love, she scarcely noticed the gathering storm clouds. But on 1 September 1939 she was woken by the roaring of the guns. Five days later her son Manny was born." "Nightmare followed. In England her adored family were threatened by war and she was faced with the gradual break-up of her marriage. Only her bravery was to save Sybil and her little son from the first of the terrible firestorms, though both were badly burned. Then the Gestapo took Manny from her and she had to endure life alone. With the ordeal of her flight from the Russians in mid-winter and then the bombing raids in Hamburg, surviving each day took monumental courage and a great deal of hope." "In this moving chronicle, recounted with painful honesty, Sybil Bannister tells how her fortitude and steadfastness brought her through fearful dangers and hardships to reunion with her son and, at last, to safe haven in Sussex."--Jacket
