German Rescuers of Jews

Other than the celebrated story of Oskar Schindler, there were other Germans who helped Jews survive the Nazi-orchestrated Holocaust, and close to 600 of them have been honored as Righteous Among the Nations by the Jerusalem Yad Vashem Holocaust Institute. This book details the rescue deeds of a large select group of German rescuers, either inside Germany or in other countries under German occupation. The author was the director for 24 years of a special department at Yad Vashem that dealt with honoring non-Jewish rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust.
