Good neighbors, bad times

echoes of my father's German village
2009
American Mimi Schwartz grew up on her father's stories about life in a small village in Germany where, before Hitler, "everybody got along." She never took the stories seriously. Many years later she heard a story of the Torah, from that very same village, being rescued by Christians on Kristallnacht in 1938. It was then that Schwartz realized what her father's stories meant, and she began a twelve-year quest to search the historical records and talk with those who remembered that time. How, this book asks, do we deal with evil and remain humane, when, as in the Nazi years, hate rules?.
