The Unwanted

America, Auschwitz, and a Village Caught In Between
Book • 2019
The Unwanted tells the story of Jewish families from the village of Kippenheim, near the Black Forest, who desperately sought American visas to flee Nazi persecution.

The book explores the bureaucratic challenges they faced and the tragic consequences of America's restrictive immigration policies during that era.

Drawing on personal accounts and historical records, Dobbs provides a poignant narrative of survival and loss.
