    Keywords: Acculturation. ; England Emigration and immigration. ; Brazil Emigration and immigration. ; United States Emigration and immigration. ; Austria History Anschluss, 1938. ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: Dedicated to his daughter Cindy, Wolf A. Popper's memoir covers the events following the Anschluss. He describes how life changed for him as a little boy, how people around him changed, and how he was struggling to understand what was going on around him. He explains the emigration route of the family, and finding temporary shelter in England. He writes about the various difficulties he had to adapt to the new culture. The family boarded a cargo ship to escape from Europe. But the ship was followed by German submarines, so it had to turn the engines off in order to escape silently. The captain lost track of the route, and they ended up in Brazil. They went to New York, and soon moved to Massachusetts, where his father had found a job. The memoir ends when they moved back to New York, shortly before the US got involved in the war.
