Description

Extravagantly praised by critics and readers; this stunning story by bestselling author Kati Marton tells of the breathtaking journey of nine extraordinary men from Budapest to the New World; what they experienced along their dangerous route; and how they changed America and the world.This is the unknown chapter of World War II: the tale of nine men who grew up in Budapest's brief Golden Age; then; driven from Hungary by anti-Semitism; fled to the West; especially to the United States; and changed the world. These nine men; each celebrated for individual achievements; were part of a unique group who grew up in a time and place that will never come again. Four helped usher in the nuclear age and the computer; two were major movie myth-makers; two were immortal photographers; and one was a seminal writer. The Great Escape is a groundbreaking; poignant American story and an important untold chapter of the tumultuous last century.
