A young American girl in the 1950's loved seeing her name on a small leaf way at the top of the Mandl-Spitzer Family Tree, surrounded by her brother, parents, uncles, aunts, and cousins. But what of the other branches with only a few familiar names? Who were all those people, and why were some branches so much shorter than others? More than fifty years later, the quest for answers began in earnest. Searching for the Mandls is the result, telling how and why a large Central European family migrated around the world over the course of a hundred years beginning in the mid-1800's. Included here are stories of courage, sacrifice, perseverance, kindness, luck and loss, as most of the family eventually found the freedom and opportunity they sought for themselves and their descendants.
