ON THE NIGHT OF December 7, 1941, Paul William Schubert and his parents leaned close to their Majestic radio in their Wisconsin home to hear President Roosevelt discuss the Day of Infamy and declare war on Japan. "Germany's next," his parents predicted anxiously. They were German immigrants with parents, siblings, cousins, and nephews already embroiled in war in the Old Country. Now many of them might find themselves fighting relatives across the Atlantic. During the next four years, the Schuberts witnessed war from the homefront as well as the American and German warfronts. The boy grew into a storyteller who has recorded his memories of his family's dramas, deaths, and deprivations that took place on both sides of the ocean during World War II. For 75 years, Schubert took notes, kept family memorabilia, and gathered his memories, vowing to write a book about his wartime experiences one day. That day began fourteen years ago, when he launched the Cedar Chips, a writing group based in Dexter, Michigan. Immigrants' Son: A German-American Boy Sees WWII From Both Sides is a conversion of his memories into a memoir, honed and polished with the help of a dedicated author, countless workshops, and the encouragement of friends who always wanted to hear more.
