Upon graduation she found a teaching position in London. She describes her experience working as an educator in an aristocratic family. She next took a teaching position in Potsdam. Following this, she moved to Bonn to complete her university studies. She describes university life in Bonn, including social aspects. Due to the tight financial situation in her family her dream to study medicine could not be fulfilled. Her father died in 1904. Elisabeth moved to Berlin to continue her studies. She met Julius Bab through literary events in Berlin and a courtship ensued. She describes the reaction of the Bab family to their son marrying a gentile.

After describing life during World War One, she discusses the continued social and familial events in her life amid the backdrop of the Weimar Republic and the rise of the Nazis to power. The Babs became involved in the foundation of the “Kulturbund Deutscher Juden.” As Nazi persecution increased the family sought exist visas to leave. The Babs managed to emigrate to Paris in 1939.
