    Abstract: The writing covers eight months, from February 1938 until September 15, 1938, when the family emigrated via airplane to London, England. The first chapter starts in February 1938, the day of Lisl's birthday. The author uses a fictional style throughout the memoir, naming herself Lisl instead of "I". The days following the Anschluss are described in detail: the persecution, being expelled from school, the arrest of her father--all from a child's perspective. A brief "epilogue" tells about Lisl taking pre-med classes at Canterbury College; and the family obtaining visas to the US and settling down in Los Angeles.
    Abstract: Also included are family and childhood photographs from the years in Austria and a few pictures from the time in the USA.

She begins by discussing her current life in Colorado, and then recounts her experience in Austria in 1937. Gusti Wyman had moved from Austria to America in 1938. Gusti had been trained in Austria as an ice skater. She relied on this training to carve a way for herself as a teenager starting out in the US. Gusti discusses her family and the lives they made for themselves in America. Photos accompany the text. Gusti's father, Julius Goldberg, was a musician who played with a small group in Austria, before moving to America. On page 72 there is a photo of Julius Goldberg seated with Albert Einstein and August Piccard, at a musical session in Professor Ehrenhaft's house in Vienna in 1937.
