Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The meeting between Hitler and Mussolini took place on July 19, 1943, at Villa Gaggia, near the town of Feltre, some fifty miles north of Venice. It was Hitler’s last trip to Italy. Mussolini had no interest in forming an alliance with Germany, but he was impressed by Hitler’s consolidation of power and the remarkable turnaround of German industry. #2 In 1943, Italy was almost out of resources, and the German High Command urged Hitler to take control of all Italian ground and air forces. Mussolini tried to explain Italy’s situation to Hitler, but he could not bring himself to admit that his country had been exhausted by the war. #3 On a clear summer morning in 1943, the entire Northwest African Strategic Air Force flew over Rome to bomb the Littorio and Ciampino Airdromes and the railway marshaling yards at Littorio and San Lorenzo. #4 The pope had left the safety and isolation of Vatican City to visit the victims of the second Allied bombing attack of Rome on August 13, 1943. He returned late that evening with his white cassock stained with dirt and blood.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Monuments Men were a group of men and women from thirteen nations, who volunteered for service in the newly created Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives section. They were tasked with saving as much of the culture of Europe as they could during combat. #2 The city of Karlsruhe, in southwestern Germany, was founded in 1715 by the Margrave Karl Wilhelm von Baden-Durlach. It was a rare luxury for Jews to be allowed to settle where they pleased, and in 1718, a Jewish congregation was established there. #3 The Ettlingers were not strictly observant Jews, but they still went to the Kronenstrasse Synagogue. The synagogue was a large, ornate hundred-year-old building. The men wore pressed black suits and black top hats, and the women sat in the upper balconies. #4 In March 1938, the Nazis annexed Austria. The public adulation that followed cemented Hitler’s control of power and reinforced his ideology of Deutschland über alles, or Germany above all. In July, the Ettlingers moved up the date of their son’s bar mitzvah ceremony, and their passage out of Germany another three weeks.

With the powerful, rhythmic sounds of Aboriginal English and Kokatha language woven through the narrative, Mazin Grace is the inspirational story of a feisty girl who refuses to be told who she is, determined to uncover the truth for herself. Growing up on the Mission isn’t easy for clever Grace Oldman. When her classmates tease her for not having a father, she doesn’t know what to say. Pappa Neddy says her dad is the Lord God in Heaven, but that doesn’t help when the Mission kids call her a bastard. As Grace slowly pieces together clues that might lead to answers, she struggles to find a place in a community that rejects her for reasons she doesn’t understand. In this novel, author Dylan Coleman fictionalizes her mother’s childhood at the Koonibba Lutheran Mission in South Australia in the 1940s and 1950s.
