Robert Perkons’ story is wrapped around the diary he kept during World War 2. It will take you to a battle on the Russian Front, evacuation from Liepāja, Latvia, his travels and war action in German occupied Europe, to existing as a POW, living as a displaced person in Germany and then ending his journey in Australia. Today he would be called a Latvian Legionnaire.

​

The diary was translated from Latvian to English. The book is all in English. It has many photographs and maps which help to illustrate the story.

 

This book may be of interest to those of Latvian heritage who would like to learn more about Latvian history and the impacts of World War 2. It may be useful to Latvian schools, historians and an asset to libraries and museums.
