Escape to Freedom

About the Book

As a small child, Pauline Elischer had no idea how dreadful war could be. Born in a small village in the center of the Carpathian Mountains, she was safe as a baby bird in its nest. But World War II changed her life forever. “Run for your lives!”" residents were told, “The Russians are coming.” They heard the rattle of machine guns, the thunder of cannons, and just over the hill was heard the rumbling of tanks. Some barely escaped with their lives, leaving family roots behind forever. Escaping from the Russians was just the start of a new life lived under a dark cloud! It seemed as though Satan was determined to destroy the girl. But through all the trials and tribulations she experienced, God had never forsaken her, and in his eternal mercy brought her through it all. God bless all who read this book.
