Query: Reliving my youth

This is an excellent book written by an author who is my age, and who, like me, lived in West Berlin during the second world war. The story provides an accurate account of the conditions in Berlin during the war, and of the friendship shared between the American soldiers (who we all admired) and the Berliners. It will be of great value to those interested in the historical aspects of the story, as well as to those who want a real page-turner about a young girl's perspectives on living through the war and how she and her family were able to cope through such a devastating time. A wonderful story which recounts the developmnt of a relationship between a young girl from Berlin and an American soldier who become separated by the battles of war, only to be brought back together again by fate. The ending is sure to be remembered by anyone fortunate enough to read this accurate description of our history and that of the young girl who is at its center. An excellent yarn.
