4.9/5 (10572 ratings)

Description:Eva Roeper-Bosch was twenty when the Germans invaded the Netherlands. Yoshitaro, her brother evacuated with the small Dutch air force, became adjutant to Queen Wilhelmina in London and a Spitfire pilot. She and her mother provided a first safe house on the coast near The Hague, through which agents sent from London could pass before going on to their missions.Eva was ninety-six when she died in Silvermine, Cape Town in 2016, certainly one of the last Dutch Resistance fighters and last member of an old and famous family that included the founder of the Cape Colony, Jan van Riebeeck and others of the Heeren XVII, who owned the Dutch empire until 1815.The story, recounted for the main part, in her own words and notes, tells of the psychological effects and trauma suffered by having been part of the war and the Dutch Resistance, of the stresses and loneliness that made up an agent's life. She was unable to speak about it for nearly half a century.Her marriage and family, emigration to South Africa and finding happiness in her second marriage to the Dutch-South African author and historian, Hymen Picard, when they began to study Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophy with a small circle of friends, are all part of her remarkable story.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
