Neu-Pasua - Journey to
the Other Schwabenland By
Johannes Banzhaf.
Author
Johannes Banzhaf of Gütersloh, Westphalia, in northern
Germany, wrote this heart-warming account. During a
challenging 2,000 km trip he and his wife, Herta Fisslacker
Banzhaf, took in a DKW automobile in 1938, they stopped off
in Indija and
Neu-Pasua to get acquainted with Johannes’s large extended
family.
The article was originally published in the Geislinger
Zeitung (Newspaper)
on July 19, 1939 and in the Stuttgarter Zeitung on August
11, 1939. Translated & Edited by Rose Vetter. Published at
DVHH.org 24 May 2011]
