Interrupted Journeys: Young Refugees From Hitler's Reich (2004) By Alan Gill

 

Some 10,000 young German, Austrian and Czech Jews fled Nazi oppression in their homeland to seek refuge in Britain, America and Australia during WWII. Leaving behind their parents, families and everything familiar they fled to an unknown country and future in their fight for survival. Interrupted Journeys reveals the wartime stories of the Kindertransports and other child and teen refugees, also the trials and eventual triumphs of young people who survived the Nazi camps, or were in hiding, and who migrated to the same destinations, sponsored by private and government agencies, in the post-war era.

 

Some of the accounts are strange, like that of the Dunera Boys -- low category enemy aliens shipped from Britain to Australia, where they were interned for nearly two years "by mistake". Even stranger is the saga of the renowned (non-Jewish) Vienna Mozart Boys Choir, who had the misfortune to be touring Australia when the war began.
