Books by Rita Reet Danko

This is a true story of a family's history, starting with serfdom in Estonia to Russia under Czar Nikolai II through revolution, occupation by foreign powers, a father's love, and flight from war. This is a firsthand account of what it was like being in the middle of WWII in Austria. Laugh and cry along with her as Rita writes her story of escape from deprivation, oppression, tyranny, and an almost-certain death in the snowy Alps to arrive in a land of freedom and opportunity.
