Show Notes

At the age of 19, Peter Manshande was sent to Nazi Germany from his home North-Holland. There he worked as a forced labourer for two-and-half years, under increasingly hazardous circumstances. Peter saved the memories of that time and hid them in his old suitcase. His daughter and her husband, Elisabeth and Brad Seltzer, wrote down his story, which was recently published in a 320 page book by Mokeham Publishing. We talk to the authors.
