• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The Road From Liepaja is the unforgettable true story of a Latvian family's escape from the clashing empires of Hitler and Stalin during the final, devastating year of World War II. When Ernests and Nanija Slaucitajs are forced to choose between remaining in their beloved homeland under the shadow of Soviet terror or fleeing into collapsing Nazi Germany with no guarantee of survival, they carry only what fits on a wagon-and adopt a small, abandoned child along the way. Through bombed cities, shifting front lines, and seas of desperate refugees, their journey captures the fear, resilience, and fragile hope of millions displaced by war. Drawn from preserved wartime journals, maps, and rare archival records, this book blends history and memory into a vivid narrative that honors both survival and remembrance. At once intimate and universal, The Road From Liepaja testifies to the endurance of family, culture, and identity in the face of tyranny. A must-read for lovers of World War II history, family memoirs, and stories of resilience in humanity's darkest hour.
