Book Description

October 10, 2003
On December 9,1941, Karl Vogt, aGerman national residing in the United States, was abruptly taken from his homenear Plaza, Washington by agents of the F.B.I. and eventually sent tointernment camps located in North Dakota, Wisconsin, Oklahoma and finallyMontana. For nearly two years he wasnot told what the "evidence" was against him and he was never told who hisaccusers were. Left behind on thefamily farm, and also subjected to harassment by the United States government,were his wife, Elsie, and his two young children, all American citizens. Meanwhile, in war torn Germany, Karl'sfather and siblings endured and survived the horrors of the Nazi regime and thedevastation of World War II. In theend, this is really a story about enduring love---the unconditional love ofGod; the love of a husband and wife for each other; the sustaining love offamily members separated by the worst of circumstances; and also, amazingly,the love that Karl and Elsie continued to have for the United States, a countrywhose government betrayed them in the most onerous way.
