Rosa Sacharin escaped the worst of the Holocaust when she left Hitler's Berlin on the 1st December with the first Kindertrasport (Transport of Children) to travel to England, arriving on the 2nd December 1938. She vividly recalls the horrors of the rise of the Nazi Party before she left and the frightening circumstances of living through that time. The book tells the story of her life and deals with the History as she lived through it from 1925, though with understanding from 1928 to the present day. She escaped the horrors of the mindless destruction of so many, but was and still is, deeply affected by their suffering. Her autobiography goes on to reveal her contribution to the society she joined, in Central Scotland, where she has earned acceptance in many hearts. To the question Why you? she says, There is no answer.
