The inspiring stories of courageous non-Jews who risked their own
lives to save Jews from the Holocaust Thanks to Thomas Keneally's
book "Schindler's Ark," and the film based on it, "Schindler's
List," people have become more aware of the fact that, in the midst
of Hitler's extermination of the Jews, courage and humanity could
still overcome evil. While six million Jews were murdered by the
Nazi regime, some were saved through the actions of non-Jews whose
consciences would not allow them to pass by on the other side, and
many are honored by Israel's official memorial to Jewish Holocaust
victims, Yad Vashem, as "Righteous among the Nations" for their
actions. As a baby, Agnes Grunwald-Spier was herself saved from the
horrors of Auschwitz by an unknown official, and is now a trustee
of the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust. She has collected the stories
of 30 individuals who rescued Jews, providing a new insight into
why these people were prepared to risk so much for their fellow men
and women. With a foreword by one of the leading experts on the
subject, this is an ultimately uplifting account of how some good
deeds really do shine in a weary world.
