A personal warning of pending deportation to a concentration camp with the risk of death causes the mother and two children to flee through occupied territory and a guarded border to the West.

Flight to personal freedom. Deprived of food, clothing, housing, and livelihood. To a decade of semi-poverty and material needs.

Enrollment at a German university and a Fulbright scholarship in the U.S. provide the opportunities to acquire skills and knowledge to further shape a young man into a polymath. Following his Manifesto for a Life.
