Since they were published soon after the end of World War II, the Diaries of Anne Frank have been read and loved by millions of people throughout the world. Now for the first time the story of Anne and other members of the Frank family, who hid from Nazi persecution in the secret rooms of their office building in Amsterdam, is told from the outside by the woman who, with others, helped to hide them and acted as their link with the outer world.

Miep Gies, herself born in Austria, began working for Otto Frank in 1933, and came to know and love his family, in particular his pretty, vivacious younger daughter, Anne. She was with them when, in July 1942, they were forced to go into hiding, and she was in the building on Prinsengracht on the terrible day in August 1944 when the Frank family were arrested, just as news of the approach of the Allies had brought new hope.

Only Otto Frank returned from the concentration camps. Miep Gies will never, to her dying day, forget the long months of life in the Secret Annexe, the struggles to find food, the terror of the air-raids, the moments of gaiety, and, through it all, Anne, quietly writing her diaries, as she lived out the last years of her childhood.

Anne Frank Remembered is the story of a tragedy, of a world gone mad with hatred, but it is also, finally, a story of hope, and of human courage and kindness that will never be forgotten.
