The Nazi regime was one of the darkest chapters in the history of humanity. But even amidst the terrifying events of that time, many brave champions risked their own lives to help Jewish refugees in need. Holocaust survivor Arnold Geier has collected the stories of 28 such heroes in this inspiring volume. From the benevolent Mother Superior who bravely hid Jewish children within the walls of her Catholic orphanage to the train engineer who slowed his train to save a mother and daughter fleeing an armed Nazi guard, each story recounts a random act of kindness that ultimately saved innocent lives.
