With the rise of Nazism in the 1930s more than a thousand European
Jews sought refuge in the Philippines, joining the small Jewish
population of Manila. When the Japanese invaded the islands in
1941, the peaceful existence of the barely settled Jews filled with
the kinds of uncertainties and oppression they thought they had
left behind. In this book Frank Ephraim, who fled to Manila with
his parents, gathers the testimonies of thirty-six refugees, who
describe the difficult journey to Manila, the lives they built
there upon their arrival, and the events surrounding the Japanese
invasion. Combining these accounts with historical and archival
records, Manila newspapers, and U.S. government documents, Ephraim
constructs a detailed account of this little-known chapter of world
history.
