Shadow
Life
by Barry Denenberg
Denenberg presents the complete story of Anne Frank and her family's
life, from Frankfurt, Germany, where Anne and Margot were born before
the war, up through to their murders at the Bergen-Belsen concentration
camp. When the Franks leave Frankfurt for Amsterdam, they are hoping
to find a place where they can resume a normal life, but instead,
the family's freedoms are taken away bit by bit. But it is when
they see that other Jews are being taken away, and sent to so-called
labor camps that the Franks realize they have no choice but to go
into hiding; they live in fear for 2 years
Excerpt:
Before March 1941, Adolf Hitler’s goal had been the forced
emigration of all Jews from Germany and recently conquered territories.
Now that changed. The newly planned objective of the German government
was the total physical annihilation of the eleven million Jewish
people living in Europe.
