The Forgotten Americans

There were 500 non-Jewish Americans interned by the Germans in Compiègne, France during World War II. Six members of my family were there when I was seven years old. In October 2012 I was invited there to make a speech. I now know the reason why we were interned. The book is also a memoir of my family including recipes of my grandmother, who was a chef, poems, and two letters from our German exchange students. You may see my interview on U-tube in French under the title Les Américains Oubliés.
