After being recruited to work at an American company while still in school, Mueller details how he embarked on a journey in 1936 that carried him through life-changing experiences as an American soldier during World War II to a return to civilian life, during which he eventually married, started a family, and realized professional success. Wolf shares the inspirational story of one mans remarkable lifelong experiences as he escaped from Nazi terror to build a life in America and learned to appreciate his good fortune.
