Author, Tammy Borden, never imagined that a personal project to preserve her mother’s memories of growing up in Germany during World War II would turn into a historical novel that’s been embraced by countless readers on five continents or that she’d speak to thousands about her mother’s incredible life story.
Nor could she have imagined it would bring healing to the family of a fallen American soldier an ocean away—80 years after his tragic death.
Come hear about Tammy’s mother’s compelling story revealed in the novel named after her and the unexpected author journey she’s been on as a result.
We hope that you’ll join us for Waltraud: A True Story of Growing Up in Nazi Germany, on Monday, November 18, from 6-7:30 PN in Manitowoc Public Library’s Balkansky Community Room.
