A Novel of the Berlin Airlift in Three Parts
The Bridge to Tomorrow Series shows how the West stopped Russian aggression without war during the Berlin Crisis of 1948/1949. The series goes beyond the political chess game and logistical achievements of the Berlin Airlift to explore the social and psychological impact of this pivotal historical event. The characters — women and men, British, American, German and Ukrainian — enable the reader to see the unfolding events through different perspectives. As the reader gets drawn into their lives, the historical tensions rise, and the trilogy accelerates the pace to that of a thriller. The Bridge to Tomorrow Series is about winning a war with milk, coal and candy bars.
“Schrader is well on her way to writing the ‘War and Peace’ of the Berlin Airlift.” — BookTrib
