This remarkable memoir chronicles the trials of a Jewish family struggling to stay one step ahead of the Nazi invasion. While part of the Berkovitz family tries to sail to England, Pappa and Brudi are left behind in occupied France. Their harrowing escape takes them through Spain and Portugal, along with many other desperate refugees, in a little-known story of escape. 

Without passports, visas or authentic identity papers, bitachon becomes the family’s ticket on a perilous flight to freedom.
