My Family and My Ancestors

In My Family and Ancestors, Dieter R. Philippi expands on “parts missed and overlooked” in his 2009 autobiography, My Path Through Life from Europe to the USA. From memories of a confusing and tense childhood in Germany under the Hitler regime to happier adult years as a successful businessman in the United States, Philippi includes a detailed genealogical history dating back to 1792, along with family photographs.

“As well as I remember, I have given the most accurate and honest points during my long lifetime. All during my life, I felt that I had to help, assist, and give whenever possible, and in exchange, I myself have received much to make for a good and enjoyable life.”
