"Beyond Hitler's Reach."

They were the fortunate few, Jewish children who threaded the needle of
Nazi regulations and American reluctance, finding refuge in the United
States. All they had to sacrifice was their childhoods.
They are painful memories, and Weiss at first had no interest in reliving
them in . Slowly he changed his mind. He wondered whether his
experience was really that different. He wondered how others had moved on
from theirs. Maybe everyone else wondered, too, he thought. Maybe, despite
the decades spent forging an identity, they all still had blanks to fill
in.
