The diary starts two weeks before her family goes into hiding. She was a Jew and the Hitler regime was trying to get rid of all of the Jews. Anne and her family along with four others lived in the attic above her fathers office for two years and a month before they were betrayed and sent off to a concentration camp. It is a really good book which most people have heard of or read.
