    [synopsis] => During the opening months of World War II, Vassar-educated career woman Rulka Langer (1906-1993) risked her life and relied on her wits to keep her two small children and elderly mother out of harm's way. "The Mermaid and the Messerschmitt" is, a rare eyewitness account of the early, chaotic days of WWII, the Nazi German invasion of Poland on September 1, 1939, the Siege of Warsaw and the first few months of the Occupation, written by a young working mother. Langer's engaging, clear-eyed chronicle sparkles with fresh and lively storytelling and a brilliant eye for detail. Weaving her story with a masterful use of humor, an occasional bite of sarcasm and a large dose of honesty, Langer paints a vivid picture of this virtually unknown aspect of WWII, and at the same time illuminates universal truths about average, ordinary people faced with war. More than 100 black & white photos, maps and illustrations.
