This chapter details Ernst Kantorowicz's departure from Germany and arrival in the United States. On the night of November 9, 1938, the Nazis unleashed their fury against Jews in “the night of broken glass” (Kristallnacht). Kantorowicz all but certainly would have been arrested in the morning and shipped to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp had he not been sheltered. When the danger passed he managed to obtain the necessary visas. Then, at the beginning of December, he crossed the border to Holland and from there ferried to England. Two months later he sailed for New York. His preparations for departure owed much to the helpfulness of friends, particularly Theodor Mommsen, who had emigrated to America in 1936.

Description:
This chapter details Ernst Kantorowicz's departure from Germany and arrival in the United States.
On the night of November 9, 1938, the Nazis unleashed their fury against Jews in “the night of broken glass” (Kristallnacht).
Kantorowicz all but certainly would have been arrested in the morning and shipped to the Sachsenhausen concentration camp had he not been sheltered.
When the danger passed he managed to obtain the necessary visas.
Then, at the beginning of December, he crossed the border to Holland and from there ferried to England.
Two months later he sailed for New York.
His preparations for departure owed much to the helpfulness of friends, particularly Theodor Mommsen, who had emigrated to America in 1936.
