IN SEARCH OF YESTERDAY Death of a Culture This is the true story of a little boy searching for his identity for his biological father. It is the story of a boy born into a world of turmoil and havoca world where not all was well, where war, starvation and bombs, confusion, lies, and deceitwere the rule; and food, safety, and happinesswere the exception. It is the story of a little boys fears and anxieties in a country far, far away where life was an uncertainty and death a looming promisewhere the world was upside down. It is the true story of a little boy that found himself trapped in a country at war with itself, where human life was at the mercy of the Nazis during the Jewish holocaust (before 1945) in Czechoslovakiaand at the mercy of the Czech Bolsheviks (after 1945) during the Sudetenland holocaust that drove untold millions of women and children across Europes wasteland like cattle. But it is also the true story of a little boy that, with the help of his family, and the generosity of the American people, rose above the devastation suffered and inflicted upon him as a child and became a man loved and respected by others. It is not a story of failure! It is, really, when you think about it, a story of success and triumph!
