'Escaping Hitler' is the story of Günter Stern who, when Adolf Hitler threatened his family, education and future, resolved to escape from his rural village in the German Rhineland. He took a bus to the border with Luxembourg, illegally crossed the river and walked alone for a week through Belgium into Holland, intent on catching a ferry to England and freedom. The outcome was not exactly as he had planned. The author gathered her information through interviews with him, now known as Joe Stirling, and with those closest to him.
