The Polish Architect: A Family's Plan that Falls Apart then Succeeds (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781546206088)

A hardworking and loving family in Poland is uprooted and separated by World War II. The mother and her four children are able to reach the United States prior to Hitler's invasion of Poland. The father and youngest son choose to remain in Poland so that the boy can finish his college education and then join the family in the United States at a later date. The plan fails, and they are stuck in Europe. The family is separated for the duration of the war. When the war ends, they are reunited with the help of the Red Cross, and the father and son are finally able to rejoin their family.

The youngest son, a successful architect, marries and has a son who later becomes a priest. The family is hit with a tragedy, but it eventually allows good things to happen--things that will help many unfortunate people live better lives.
