I recently finished a book called, <b>Abandoned and Forgotten; An Orphan Girl’s Tale of Survival During World War II</b> by Evelyne Tannehill. <br />Much has been written abut WWII, especially the Holocaust, but there is not much literature about what a large segment of the <a href="http://www.abandonedandforgotten.com/" rel="nofollow">German civilian</a> population went through during that terrible war – those who wanted no part of Hitler’s regime, but who were trapped in situation from which there was no escape. You either obeyed orders or you were shot for disobedience or treason. Evelyne's father’s incarceration for merely speaking out against Hitler’s regime is a prime example of what happens in a totalitarian society.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
