Autobiography of Dr. Michael Haas, a remarkable man, recalling the joys and horrors, triumphs and disappointments, and the seemingly endless challenges that threatened and confronted him from the very beginning. War brutally rips away his bucolic village childhood and home. Descendant from hearty immigrants, Michael turns the tables on the life-threatening tragedies that surround him, using his own wits, determination, friends, and an occasional assist from good fortune. Throughout his experiences he confronts death, poverty, hunger, cold, and homelessness. He would become refugee, student, laborer, immigrant, soldier, engineer, handyman, and doctor. Ultimately, his perseverance - and the assistance and opportunities both Austria and America would offer - lead to family, career, and success. Dedicated to his loving family, relations, and friends, My Story is one man's inspiring and very human account of survival, will, and life.
