Story0
The year was 1935: the twilight of the English aristocracy. It was a time of wealth and glamour; of lavish balls and evening gowns; of tiaras and a coronation. As personal maid to Lady Coventry, Hilda Newman had a unique insight into the leisured life of one of Britain's most noble families. In her fascinating memoir of life upstairs and down, Hilda takes us back to this period between the wars; a gilded era which would soon be dramatically changed by the Second World War.

Story0
Nowhere in Africa is the extraordinary tale of a Jewish family who flees the Nazi regime in 1938 for a remote farm in Kenya. Abandoning their once-comfortable existence in Germany, Walter Redlich, his wife Jettel, and their five-year-old daughter, Regina, each deal with the harsh realities of their new life in different ways. Attorney Walter is resigned to working the farm as a caretaker; pampered Jettel resists adjustment at every turn; while the shy yet curious Regina immediately embraces the country - learning the local language and customs.

In the spring of 1945, at Rechnitz on the Austrian-Hungarian border, not far from the front lines of the advancing Red Army, Countess Margit Batthyany gave a party in her mansion. The war was almost over, and the German aristocrats and SS officers dancing and drinking knew it was lost. Late that night, they walked down to the village, where 180 enslaved Jewish labourers waited, made them strip naked, and shot them all before returning to the bright lights of the party.

As a reporter, Jacques Peretti has spent his life investigating important stories. But there was one story, heard in scattered fragments throughout his childhood, that he never thought to investigate. The story of how his mother survived Auschwitz. In the few last months of the Second World War, 13-year-old Alina Peretti, along with her mother and sister, was one of 13,000 non-Jewish Poles sent to Auschwitz. Her experiences there cast a shadow over the rest of her life. Now 90, Alina has been diagnosed with dementia.

In 1937, the Shwartz family lived a calm life in their small village in Poland. Fifteen-year-old Rachel liked to sing and go out dancing at a local night club, while her older brother David was busy running a farm and raising a family with his wife Hinda. But all that changed when the war reached Butla. First, the Russians came and kicked them out of their house. Then, the Nazis came to cart them off. But the Shwartz family resisted. David decided that no matter what, his family would not be taken captive. Instead, he snuck his family out of their village and into Hungary.

Gwenda and Douglas Brady were among the millions of British children sent to live with new families for their own safety during the Second World War, leaving behind their parents, their friends and all that felt familiar and safe. Evacuation could be a scary experience, but five-year-old Gwenda and her brother were lucky enough to be housed with a kindly schoolmaster and his wife, and soon the realities of the war felt very far away.

Als der Journalist Sacha Batthyany zufällig erfährt, dass seine Großtante Margit in eines der schlimmsten Nazi-Verbrechen am Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges verwickelt war, ist er schockiert. Schnell merkt er, dass dem Schweigen über die Tat kaum beizukommen ist - die Familie hat sich arrangiert, es wird nach vorn geblickt und nicht zurück. Als er auf das Tagebuch seiner Großmutter stößt, verändert das seinen Blick auf die Familie und sich selbst radikal. Prägen vorangegangene Generationen die Art, wie wir leben? Sind wir doch alle Kriegsenkel?

At that conference, Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem, and other feminists adopted a National Plan of Action, endorsing the hot-button issues of abortion rights, the Equal Rights Amendment, and gay rights - then a new issue in national politics.

Een baanbrekend, meeslepend verhaal over hoe Duitse bedrijven als BMW, Dr. Oetker, Porsche en Volkswagen zich verrijkten tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog en er na de oorlog nauwelijks sancties volgden. In 1946 werd magnaat Günther Quandt gearresteerd wegens vermeende nazi-samenwerking. Quandt, patriarch van Duitslands meest iconische industriële imperium, een dynastie die tegenwoordig bmw bestuurt, beweerde dat hij door minister van Propaganda Goebbels was gedwongen zich bij de partij aan te sluiten. De rechtbanken spraken hem vrij. Maar Quandt loog en hij was niet de enige.
