Some Girls, Some Hats and Hitler: A True Love Story Rediscovered by Trudi Kanter

5.0

This is a memoir by a Jewish woman who was a hat designer/business owner in Vienna, and this is her story of surviving the war. Many times she and her husband and her parents were in peril. (Her husband was also Jewish). Her intelligence and determined spirit and talent for fashion (which got her jobs and visas) enabled her to survive. Of course there's always luck too, and the kindness of strangers. They went from Vienna to Prague to London; Hitler's attacks followed them. Fascinating and heart-breaking, if you like WWII memoirs you will love this!
