An inspirational history one off from the author of }Auschwitz{, which sold over 100,000 copies in paperback and won a British Book Award in 2006. Rees has spent nearly 20 years meeting people who were tested to the extreme in WWII, and here he presents 35 of his most electrifying encounters. From Esther Frenkiel, a young Jewish woman given the chance to save 10 fellow Jews from death, to Hiroo Onoda, a fanatical Japanese soldier who refused to surrender until 29 years after the war, this is a fascinating collection.
