The true-life account of Nori Boni-Zorovich's escape with her husband and young son from Communist Yugoslavia in 1951. Under the cover of night, they sailed a small boat to Italy where they lived in a refugee camp for two and a half years, and then ventured out across the Atlantic Ocean in a small boat. A gripping story of a family's search for a better life. Maria Zorovich Gavila translated her mother's book from Italian to English.
