Seen & Heard as a Child: Growing up in Germany in the shadow of WWII

By Edith Polski

Part family history, part snapshot of life in Germany between the wars, as seen through the eyes of a curious child. Edith Polski's unique personal account covers everything from the bombing of Hamburg to the rural idyll of country life, on the farm where she was billeted with her mother and sister for the duration of the war.

"The train moved along into an uncertain future for all of us. It had become dark. It was night and, even though L beck was not that far away by distance, in those times of war trains often got attacked by air raids. So trains rode in complete darkness, in an effort to arrive as safe as possible. It was stop and go, and long waiting times in between."

Featuring over 130 photographs, Seen & Heard as a Child brings to life the people, places and everyday realities at a difficult time in history.
