An immigrant woman reflects on her past in Germany before, during, and after World War II, as well as finding love, family, and a future in America. This is the remarkable life story of Anna Burkardt McKay, who was born in Germany before WWII and who moved to the United States as an American war bride in 1947 to raise a family on a small cattle ranch in Nevada. Through a childhood in Hochst, Germany, where fond memories mingle with remembrances of the horrors of the Second World War's beginning; into a young adulthood, filled with terrors of the escape and evasion of Nazi youth work camps; through falling in love and immigrating to the United States to marry, and later have a family, this is Anna's Story .
