- Summary:
- Hans Kahn spent his life looking towards the sea. And it was no easy task as he escaped from the Nazis through the least-used route from Amsterdam through Belgium, France and across the Pyrenees to Spain, Portugal and England. There he volunteered and spent the rest of the war with the Navy of the Dutch Government-in-exile. The story takes us up to the present day.
