The Scattergood Hostel For European Refugees, 1939-1943

BY MICHAEL LUICK-THRAMS

Brief Description:
From 1939 to 1943, close to 185 refugees from Nazi-occupied Europe found refuge at Scattergood, a temporary hostel in what had been (and now is) a Quaker boarding school near West Branch, Iowa. Telling the stories of the refugees' backgrounds, their flight from Europe, and their lives in the United States, this book is a fascinating history.
