Summary:
"American Shoes illuminates twelve years in the tumultuous childhood of a spirited young American girl who refused to accept the new order of a society gone mad. When Rosemarie "Rosel" Lengsfeld and her family become trapped in a country on the cusp of war, they find themselves living in the midst of endemic fear stoked by a ravenous madman. American Shoes follows the breakdown of a society from a child's point of view, within a land where millions of citizens are targeted by hate and then removed for extermination. Anticipating discovery by the Nazi secret police, Rosel is compelled to keep her American identity secret for fear of her family's arrest or worse. Fighting to see through a relentless barrage of Nazi lies and propaganda--caught within a nation where resistance or opposition meant incarceration if not certain death--Rosel recounts her family's struggle to survive against impossible odds as a cataclysmic world war marches closer and closer until it is upon them."-- Publisher.
