Summary | In the months before World War II, an extraordinary rescue operation aided the youngest victims of Nazi terror. Ten thousand Jewish and other children were transported from German-held lands to foster homes and hostels in Great Britain. Some of the children built new family ties. Some endured the Blitz. Some, amazingly, found ways to liberate their own parents from Adolf Hitler's tyranny. And all have unforgettable stories to tell. |
