The breathtaking memoir by a member of "Nicky's family", several 669 Czechoslovakian children who escaped the Holocaust through Sir Nicholas Winton's Kindertransport job. My Coach to Flexibility relates the studies and achievements of award-winning humanitarian and former Episcopal priest Ivan Backer. As Backer recounts in his memoir, in-may of 1939, as a 10-year-old Jewish young man, he fled Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia for the United Kingdom aboard one of the Kindertransport trains organized by Nicholas Winton, a London stockbroker. The final teach was canceled on September 1 when Hitler invaded Poland. The 250 children slated for that teach were still left on the system and later transported to attentiveness camps and presumably perished. Detailed in this true storyline is Backer's dangerous get away from, his boyhood in England, his perilous 1944 voyage to America, and his mantra today. Now he is an 86-year-old who remains an activist for calmness and justice. He has been affected by his Jewish traditions, his Religious boarding institution education in England, and the always present question: "For what purpose was I spared the Holocaust?" My Coach to Flexibility was extensively researched and designed by Backer's own recollections. It offers interviews he conducted in 1980 in Czech along with his mom and her sister, later translated into British; a assortment of conversations he previously with his old brother and cousin; and insights gained from the Czech film Nicky's Family, about the Kindertransport, and concludes with never-before-published death march accounts by two members of the family.
