Abstract:
Includes three war diaries (1914-1917), one diary written in London and in the USA (1939-1943), and his “Second War diary" about the beginning of WW II which he experienced in London. The diary written in London and in the USA starts with a detailed account of the years 1933-1939, when Wilhelm Buchheim was principal in the Jewish school in Dortmund, Germany. He writes about how school life was affected by the National Socialist government. There is also a detailed account of Kristallnacht in Dortmund, Germany. In September 1941, Mr. Buchheim switches his writing language from German to English.
