Joined by Kat Rohrer, the granddaughter of a Nazi officer, Scheidt embarked on a quest to trace his family's harrowing efforts to escape from Nazi-occupied Europe. As they investigated, they uncovered stories of survival and loss. Their journey takes them across generations and continents, revealing a legacy of love, loss, and resilience. Grappling with questions about the long-lasting effects of inherited trauma, the book asks whether it is possible to break free of a familial cycle. This memoir, rooted in his family's escape and the lasting trauma that followed, is a powerful reflection on history's enduring scars, the importance of remembrance, and healing across generations.","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52866958852312,"sku":"9781978846746","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/0369\/4552\/files\/imageloader_ba2b2262-a912-435e-a11c-e2299119288a.jpg?v=1793578069","url":"https:\/\/bigredbooks.shop\/products\/inheritance","provider":"Big Red Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
