Wartime Encounter by Harm de Blij
This book presents a child's eye view of life in occupied Holland
during World War II. While the author waited for the Allies to liberate
his country he immersed himself in geography lessons, which gave him a
window on the world.
"This is a fast-paced yet sensitive story of a boy robbed of his
youth in the Nazi-occupied Netherlands. Surrounded by books,
music and maps -- particularly one chronicling the Allied invasion of
Europe -- Harm converted enforced solitude into the start of what
was to become a brilliant career that led to international
prominence and to a long affiliation with the National geographic
Society as narrator, editor, and member of its Committee for
Research and Exploration."
-Gilbert Grosvenor, Chairman National Geographic Society
"A wonderful story ... beautifully written. I started it after supper
and simply could not put it down. The book tells of a time, place and
circumstances that must never be forgotten."
