Background

From the Perspective of Whom?


Another phrase that comes to mind when researching the afore-mentioned subject matter is: History is written by the victors
The more I come across the blatant lies, distortions of the truth and examples of the success that ongoing manipulations by the media and others have had with regard to getting the "masses" in a number of counties to accept things as being "the gospel truth", the more it confirms the fact that history certainly is written by the victors. The more I delve, the more I learn.

The Places of Interest of this Website


My interest, and therefore the focus in this website, is on what happened in the following places:
Germany, The Baltic States, Former eastern territories: Silesia or Schlesien, East Prussia, West Prussia, Pomerania, Sudetenland, East Brandenburg and where other Expellees came from: Yugoslavia: Danube Swabians or Donauschwaben, Romania, Hungary: Danube Swabians or Donauschwaben, Poland, Czechoslovakia

How it got started


My first exposure to this subject was when I read "After the Reich" by Giles MacDonogh. It opened up a whole new history as far as I was concerned; a case of revealing a history that has been ignored or hidden for what may be many reasons. I then began reading more books on this subject. The more I read the more I realised that there was so much more that remained unread and untold. The authors, whose books I have read, all seem to have wanted people to know "what really happened". I humbly wish to support their objectives by creating this website which I hope will point other people into searching for the truth in a currently largely ignored part of history.
