Just Passing Through

Historian and author Daniel Snowman (b. 1938) writes of a Jewish child’s memories of the War, gives colourful inside accounts of life in Cambridge, JFK’s America (including Civil Rights) and the new University of Sussex, of the BBC in its heyday, choral concerts under the world’s top conductors and extended visits to the Arctic and Antarctic. Daniel watches Churchill making one of his final speeches, interviews Harry Truman about Hiroshima, spends a week in Bayreuth with Wagner’s daughter-in-law, meets Pope John-Paul II, Isaiah Berlin and Lord Snowdon, while getting to know Placido Domingo and the most famous among the ‘Hitler Emigres’.
