    Abstract: The memoir was written in Israel in the 1990s. Phillippe Storch's father Baruch was born 1887 in Galicia. He came to Hannover at age 13 and started his own business in 1907. His ready-made men's clothing had great success and expanded within the years. He met his future wife Deborah, née Horowitz in Hannover, where she had moved with her father from Galicia. They married in 1912. Phillippe was the youngest of four children. His father Baruch, an orthodox Jew, was a strict but a just and kind-hearted man. He was a fervent German patriot and an admirer of German culture, which left him blind folded to the events of the Nazi era and ultimately led to his end in Auschwitz. The children were brought up with German education. Phillippe's older brother Sally was a member of Agudat Yisroel and prepared himself for emigration to Palestine (hakhsharah), which their father strongly opposed. Despite the anti-Jewish boycott the business still continued to do well until 1938. With the "Kristallnacht" on November 9th 1938 things deteriorated rapidly. The family, who had been granted German citizenship, became stateless. During "Kristallnacht" the entire apartment and their shop were devastated. In 1939 Phillippe joined a children's transport to the Netherlands. 1940 the Germans entered the Netherlands. Phillippe's brother Sally and his sister Martha crossed the border illegally to Belgium, where Sally contracted TB and died shortly after the Germans entered the country. Through the help of the "Resistence" Phillippe was reunited with his sister and mother in Antwerp, Belgium. They managed to get to Southern France, where their mother died of exhaustion. Through adventurous circumstances Phillippe managed to cross the border to Switzerland together with his sister and her husband.
    Abstract: He was taken to a military camp near Zurich. It was in poor conditions, but they had a rich cultural life due to many famous inmates such as the singer Josef Schmidt and the writer Manes Sperber. Transfer to a family camp in Morgin, where he got married to his inmate Esther Rothstein. Post-war life in France. 1946 birth of his oldest son Sami in Lyon. French citizenship in 1949. Emerging textile business. Business travels to Israel. Emigration to Brazil in 1952. Export business with his friend Shloyme Draenger.

Helmut's brother Heinz (Henry) joined him in 1934, as the condition in his school in Frankfurt had become intolerable. Summer vocations with their parents in Suffolk.

    Abstract: Max Mautner's memoir provides a detailed account of daily life and suffering in Vienna during the first years after the Anschluss. During some of that time, Mautner was working at a Jewish office in Vienna distributing food stamps. The second part of the memoir is dedicated to the concentration camp Theresienstadt, where he was deported to in 1942. Mautner remembers terrible diseases and work conditions. After some time he was employed as a guard, first at a manufactory, then at the one and only coffee house at Theresienstadt. His account then covers the liberation of Theresienstadt by the Russian army, his time at the displaced persons camp at Deggendorf, Germany, and finally a transport of 800 orphans to Palestine, which he accompanied. The memoir ends with the formal establishment of Israel in 1948.
