• Description

  Witness to History: From Vienna to Shanghai: A Memoir of Escape, Survival and Resilience On the dark, rainy afternoon of November 28, 1938, a slight 18-year-old Austrian man took in his first impressions of Shanghai. Paul Hoffmann had left his family and all that was familiar to him in Vienna and was now among a forlorn stream of thousands of Jewish refugees into China.
