This book uncovers the history of a group of Jewish workers and
merchants in the Amsterdam diamond industry during the Holocaust.
They and their families were exempt from deportation for a long
time, but were eventually deported to Bergen-Belsen. In the end,
almost all of the men perished, and the women barely survived
slave-labour. Their children were left to die in the camp, but were
miraculously saved by the intervention of a Jewish Polish woman,
'nurse Luba'. The main sources on which this book is based are
video testimonies of the surviving members of this group, personal
interviews, minutes of interviews taken down in shorthand shortly
after the war, and personal documents such as letters, archival
documents, and autobiographical books.
