Summary By the time Stephen Matthews was six years old, he had been bombarded by the Luftwaffe and deported from Nazi-occupied Guernsey, along with his family, to a prison camp in the heart of Hitler's Third Reich. This memoir is told through Stephen's own experiences as well as writings from his mother's diaries and previously unpublished photos of historical significance.
