Book Description
===================
The first in a series of books, I Somehow Survived is an extraordinary
collection of true stories giving testimony to those who survived
World War II. Based on interviews with numerous veterans from across
the spectrum of wartime experience, the book documents and reflects
upon one of the most gruesome times in history.

From anti-partisan warfare in the French mountains and atrocities in
East Prussia to the experience of a Norwegian concentration camp, the
accounts include rarely heard stories from a range of people caught up
in the war. With the distance of time, these survivors have been able
to offer new perspectives on their experiences and expose truths they
would not have dared admit several decades ago.

German Army officers reveal their role in the Vercors and Kiev
massacres. A Luftwaffe officer-applicant who never flew describes
service on the ground. And a Norwegian woman writes of marrying a
German Kriegsmarine while her mother was in a Norwegian concentration
camp for political activity and her father was in hiding from the
Gestapo. “I have no objection to your marrying him,” her father told
her, “I just want them to give us our country back.”
