Lost in a Labyrinth of Red Tape: The Story of an Immigration that Failed (Jewish Lives)

Lost in a Labyrinth of Red Tape is the story of one family's desperate attempts to emigrate from Nazi Germany. The Frü haufs faced enormous obstacles with the German and foreign authorities when they attempted to take advantage of matriarch Hilde Frü hauf's U.S. citizenship. At the mercy of various agencies and shippers, they became more and more entangled in the red tape of the title. The daughter went into hiding and fled to Belgium, where she was hidden by the Resistance and survived the war. Tragically, the remaining members of her family failed to emigrate, and were killed by the Nazis.
