Peter Fraenkel here gives a vivid account of a childhood in a
middle-class, non-observant Jewish family in Nazi Germany, forced
to emigrate to Zambia (then Northern Rhodesia) in 1939. Here the
contrast could hardly be greater, from persecuted Jew, to 'enemy
alien' in colonial Northern Rhodesia, to re-assimilation into the
privileged colonial elite. Following education in Northern and
Southern Rhodesia he worked for the Northern Rhodesian and later,
Central Broadcasting Service. Here his pioneering work and support
for racial equality in a deeply racist society connected with his
earlier life - 'no fixed abode' but in tune with humane liberalism.
