Description

Explore a profound chapter of World War II history with this detailed account of the Westerweel Group. This book follows the courageous efforts of left-wing teacher Joop Westerweel and a network of Dutch idealists and Dutch-German Zionists who worked together to save lives during the Nazi occupation. Through a joint rescue mission, the group successfully protected approximately 300 Jews, many of whom were young German and Austrian Palestine Pioneers. The narrative tracks their journey as they were hidden in the Netherlands and moved through France toward Spain via the Pyrenees. Written by Hans Schippers of the Netherlands Institute of War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies (NIOD), this work provides a historical look at the immense personal risks taken by resistance members. Joop Westerweel lost his life for his bravery, while others faced the hardships of concentration camps. This volume is an essential read for those studying modern Jewish history and the human side of wartime resistance.
