Peter Hilger Bücher

Set against the backdrop of World War II, Peter Hilger's life unfolds as he navigates the complexities of identity and allegiance. Born in Germany to an American father, Peter faces the dangers of being labeled an enemy alien after the U.S. enters the war. His journey through medical school leads him to a lasting friendship with Fritz von Hohenzollern, a member of the former royal family. Protected by Fritz's aristocratic lineage during the war, Peter's experiences highlight themes of survival, loyalty, and the impact of historical upheaval on personal lives.

The book showcases a collection of stories drawn from Peter Hilger's extensive travels and experiences across various locations, including the United States and abroad. After graduating from the Sorbonne and relocating with his wife Hanna, Hilger's narratives reflect the diverse cultures and people he met during his journeys. These tales, many previously published in airline magazines, offer readers a glimpse into his life and the rich tapestry of experiences that shaped his perspective.
