Join historians Meg McAleer and Josh Levy as they discuss founder of psychoanalysis Sigmund Freud’s narrow escape from Nazi-controlled Vienna with Andrew Nagorski, author of the new book "Saving Freud: The Rescuers Who Brought Him to Freedom." "Saving Freud" is a dramatic account of an international effort to rescue Freud from Vienna following its 1938 annexation by Germany-a mission that was complicated by Freud’s refusal to leave until his daughter Anna’s arrest by the Gestapo convinced him of the danger in staying. Nagorski weaves together the biographies of Freud’s rescuers with an account of his last days in the city he loved, and an escape that nearly came too late.
