"This book is an effort to understand the effects of the experience on children of living through World War II in Europe and United States. It is based exclusively on first-person accounts recorded by people Marilyn Yalom had known closely as adults and after decades-long conversations with them. These friends convey wartime memories from childhood years spent in France, Germany, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, England, Finland, Sweden, Norway, and Holland. In addition to their recollections, Marilyn Yalom added her own wartime memories-those of an American girl safely protected in Washington, D.C., while bombs dropped on my counterparts abroad"-- Provided by publisher
