Deborah Cadbury
In 1933, as Hitler came to power, schoolteacher Anna Essinger hatched a daring plan: to smuggle her entire school out of Nazi Germany. Recognizing the terrible dangers of Hitler’s Germany, she resolved to bring her pupils to the safety of England. From her new school in Kent, as war swept the continent, Anna welcomed children fleeing unimaginable horrors.
Featuring moving firsthand testimony from surviving pupils and drawing from letters, diaries, and present-day interviews, The School that Escaped the Nazis is a dramatic human tale offering a unique perspective on the devastation of Nazi totalitarianism. It is also the story of one woman’s refusal to let her belief in a better world be overtaken by hatred and violence.

Reseñas de la crítica
“What gives this book its immediacy and freshness is the fact that Deborah Cadbury has spoken to so many of the witnesses to a phenomenal story. The woman who brought an entire school to Kent from Germany, and saved so many children from the Nazis, was a completely heroic figure. This story is an uplifting reminder of how courage, high virtue, and intelligence can overcome even the most appalling odds. At many points, with tearful eyes, I cheered—it is a book which stirs up deep emotion, and high admiration, for the author as well as its subject.”—A. N. Wilson, author of The Mystery of Charles Dickens
“Anna Essinger’s wartime school for Jewish refugees reminds us of the lifelong impact which one person’s compassion and imagination can make on others—even in the darkest of times. Cadbury’s story packs a real emotional punch.”—Caroline Shenton, author of National Treasures
“A stirring account of a German schoolteacher’s efforts to build an oasis for children fleeing the Nazi advance across Europe. . . . Impressively researched and vividly told, this is a captivating portrait of courage and resilience in the face of unspeakable horror.”—Publishers Weekly
“An inspiring, well-researched life portrait of a spectacularly heroic teacher.”—Kirkus Reviews
