About This Book
Fleeing Prague in the wake of the outbreak of World War II, scientist Eva Laquedem wanders the world aimlessly, drifting rootlessly from place to place until she arrives in Windsor, Canada, at the home of a devout widow with two sons, carrying the Augsburg Miscellany, a beautiful fifteenth-century illuminated Hebrew manuscript. Reprint.
