Synopsis "Struggle and Heroics in Occupied Holland: WWII and Beyond"
Several years into World War II, a young couple in occupied Holland decided to hide a Jewish medical student in their home to protect him from the Nazis as part of their work with the Resistance. Eventually, they helped smuggle him out of the country to safety. This couple, Johannes and Maria Messinger, were author Hans Messinger's parents.In Struggles and Heroics in WWII, he tells their life and family story from their dangerous work with the Resistance, their struggles to survive through the Hunger Winter of 1944-45, their recollections of the liberation of Holland by Canadian forces, and their efforts to build a new life in Canada during some tough economic times.Filled with interesting cultural gems and incredible historical events, this book is a deeply personal and moving story about the life and family of two courageous individuals.
