Prelude to the Past

Prelude to the Past is the remarkable story of a young Jewish girl growing up in Germany during the years leading up to the First World War. She experienced adulthood during the tumultuous years between the two World Wars, becoming one of the most important journalistic figures of the period. This tumultuous era comes to life through the eyes of a powerful, passionate, strong, yet vulnerable Jewish woman who not only recorded the events of the era but also helped to shape them. With an introduction by Dr. Ernest H. Latham, Jr., the foremost scholar on the life and work of Rosie Gräefenberg, aka R.G. Waldeck, Prelude to the Past is a must-read for anyone interested in European society in the years preceding Hitler’s domination of Europe.
