Saving Freud : the rescuers who brought him to freedom / Andrew Nagorski.

Nagorski, Andrew, (author.).

Summary:

In March 1938 Hitler absorbed the country of Austria into the Third Reich. Many Jews had already fled, but Sigmund Freud-- eighty-one years old and ill with cancer-- was unconvinced that his life was in danger. Nagorski tells of how several prominent people coaxed Freud from his deep state of denial, and extricated him and his family to London. -- adapted from jacket
