Kindertransport 60th Anniversary
1939-1999 Souvenir Book.

This 184 page Souvenir Book is beautifully printed and will be of interest to all Kinder, regardless of whether they attended the London Reunion or not.

A picture of the Plaque which was unveiled by the Speaker of the House of Commons, Betty Boothroyd, on June 14, 1999 graces the cover of the book. Inside are messages from Bertha Leverton (How It All Started), Bea Green (Survival and Achievement), Kurt Goldberger, Kurt Fuchel, and Inge Sadan (Greetings from Israel).

The book also contains a Timeline of the Holocaust, copies of important documents from the archives, a section devoted to rescuers such as Nicholas Winton, Henry Fair, Rabbi Dr. Solomon Schonfeld, and many others. The full program is of the reunion is included, as well as brief biographies of speakers, and lists of donors and participants, and a list of Nobel Laureates, 25 of them! The final pages are devoted to a long (alas!) "In Memoriam" section.

The book was available at the reunion for 10 pounds Sterling. It can be obtained by sending $20 and a self-addressed mailing label (not necessarily sticky) to:
Kurt Fuchel, 52 N. Suffolk Drive
