World War II through the eyes of a child
Philomena Keller Baker was 9 in 1944 when she and her mother boarded a boxcar attached to a train of wounded German soldiers in Odessa, Ukraine, and began a perilous journey, mostly on foot, to American-occupied Germany. Generously illustrated with precious family photographs her mother carried on their long trek, Flight to Freedom is Philomena’s story of World War II through the eyes of a child, as told to journalist Kathryn Olmstead.
