Exciting autobiography of Alexander Munzel who grew up in Nazi Germany where he began at an early age to resist their ways, going so far as to ignore a draft order and become a deserter who could be shot. After the war he tried to escape from Germany by becoming a stowaway but was caught. Eventually he emigrated to Canada and worked at hard labor jobs while learning English from sermons on an old radio. He returned to school and became a successful architect and businessman, but throughout his life he always did things the hard way and had many adventures, preferring to challenge himself in order to grow from the experience.

Historical autobiography: Germany, WWII, and U.S.A. a bit repetitive and uneven, but worthwhile.
