This book has a special meaning for me since my grandfather Rabbi Joseph Brody was very close with Rabbi Weissmandel. It tells the tale of a Rabbi, who despite his heart condition, risked his life to save many Jews from the gas chambers. He worked tirelessly on a plan to bomb the train tracks that lead to Auschwitz, but this plan was unfortunately nixed by President Roosevelt. I would reccomend this book to anyone interested in the history of the Holocaust. It is well writtena and well researed. (My grandfather's picture can be found on page 245.)

5.0 out of 5 stars a must read, May 11, 2009

By	eccentric reader - See all my reviews

This is a must read for any student of the holocaust. Its full of proofs and documentation regarding hungarian jewry during the war. Rabbi Weismandel had no ulterior motives other than saving jews.
