The Anschluss (the annexation of Austria into Nazi Germany in 1938) was welcomed by many Austrians; they believe that Germany would rescue the county from high unemployment and poverty. But the Nazis also brought with them laws that discriminated against Austria’s Jewish population. Subak Sharpe was a child from a Jewish family, and he describes the discrimination that quickly grew. Like other Jewish children, he was sent by his family to find safety in Britain. He never saw them again.
