About This Item
Oxford University Press, New York, 1990, 1990. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. Royal octavo, hardcover, fine in VG green and black pictorial dj. First Edition. Clean, unmarked. Few lives shed more light on the complex relationship between Jews and Christians during and after the Holocaust--or provide a more moving portrait of courage--than Oswald Rufeisen's. A Jew passing as a Christian in occupied Poland, Rufeisen worked as translator for the German police--the very people who rounded up and murdered the Jews--and repeatedly risked his life to save hundreds from the Nazis. 279 pp. including index.
