The result of a four-year; in-depth study of those refugees who came as children or youths from Central Europe to the United States during the 1930s and 1940s; fleeing persecution from the National Socialist regime. This study uses social science methodology and examines their fates in their new country; their successes and tribulations.

Review
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Engaging and insightfulBy E. TolandDr. Whalen gives a clear and engaging narrative on the development of the Papacy from the beginning of the Middle Ages to the eve of the modern era and how Popes with distinct characters and competencies forged a position of leadership in the emerging western Europe in many ways stepping into the vacuum left by the decline of the Empire and replacing the power of former Roman Emperors. Whalen offers a fascinating tale of the interactions of the popes with secular leaders in an era of broad transition and uncertainty. An insightful learning journey for the general reader who gains a clear picture of an office that was at the core of the growth of European culture.
