Short description
witnessing the Anschluss
Subject
Anschluss
Title
Hitler enters Austria
Full description or Story
Walter remembers his family home and describes the road on which he lived, and where he witnessed the Anschluss.
His mother loved their home because it was surrounded by nature, being at the end of the street, next to a park and the river Vien.
I need to get around to publishing the full transcripts of these stories on The Glass Files.
