A Chance to Live: A Family's Journey to Freedom

by Pieter Kohnstam

As a small boy, Pieter Kohnstam lived with his parents in an apartment in Amsterdam during World War II. Anne Frank, whose diary later became world famous, was a neighbor and playmate. When the Nazis occupied The Netherlands, the Frank family went into hiding, but the Kohnstams decided to flee. Their year-long odyssey across Europe was filled with hardship, danger and miraculous escapes. Based on a memoir of Pieter's father, "A Chance to Live" is a powerful tale of struggle, determination and survival during the Holocaust, chronicling what is best about people and affirming that we are, after all, one human family. This 2nd edition contains a new preface, as well as additional archival material gathered by the author when he visited Amsterdam for the publication of the Dutch translation of the book.
