Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. 308 pages. Includes 20 black and white illustrations. Foreword by Paul Spiegel. Afterword to the English-language edition. Bibliography. Appendix: the deportees. Marion Schreiber was born in 1942 in Drossen and was an editor at Der Spiegel for sixteen years.…The spring of 1943 was a desperate season for the Jews of Brussels. The resistance movement had successfully bombed the SS headquarters that January, but anti-Jewish laws were tightening, and a camp had been set up in the nearby town of Mechelen to transport Belgian Jews to Auschwitz. One day in April, resistance fighter Youra Livchitz, a young doctor, discovered the departure date of the next transport train. With only one weekend in which to organize a raid, Youra recruited two school friends, Jean Franklemon and Robert Maistriau, to pull off one of the most daring rescues of the entire war. Equipped with only three pairs of pliers, a hurricane lamp covered in red paper, and a single pistol, the men ambushed the train, which was transporting 1,618 Jews to Auschwitz. These three men freed seventeen men and women before the German guards opened fire. Miraculously, by the time the convoy had reached the German border another 225 prisoners had managed to escape and found shelter. The three young rescuers were turned in by a double agent, imprisoned, and killed. Marion Schreiber's gripping book about the only Nazi death train in World War II to be ambushed draws on private documents, photographs, archive material, and police reports, as well as original research, including interviews with the surviving escapees. Derived from a Kirkus review: A vivid work of history, reconstructing a little-known act of resistance in the heart of Nazi-occupied Europe. Youra Livchitz, a Brussels-based physician, was forced from practice in 1942 following an order that Jews be barred from medicine. He soon became acquainted with German and Austrian refugees who "refused to comply with the 'degrading order of the Nazis' and wear the Jewish star," an order that preceded mass deportations of Jews to death camps in Eastern Europe by only a few months. Once the deportations were underway, Livchitz organized a daring raid on a German train that freed nearly 240 Auschwitz-bound Jews, who found shelter among mostly Catholic Belgians and, without exception, stayed out of the hands of the pursuing Nazis. German-born journalist and former Der Spiegel editor Schreiber writes that Livchitz was not so lucky. Betrayed by a White Russian double agent, he was captured and executed; a German chaplain recalled that he refused a blindfold, wanting "to be shot with his face towards the rising sun, as a symbol of life." Schreiber's narrative is well rendered, and full of dramatic moments. It raises an interesting larger question that is surely worth scholarly investigation: How is it that 60 percent of the Jews of Belgium survived the Holocaust, whereas only 12 percent of the Jews of neighboring Holland and similar numbers elsewhere in Europe escaped death? Notes Schreiber, "Most Belgians rejected the brutal methods that the German occupying forces used against the Jews. Especially in Brussels and Wallonia, the population proved to be largely immune to the poison of National Socialist racial hatred." Indeed, she adds, Belgian resistance organizations urged patriots to greet Jews in passing, offer them seats on the trolley, and otherwise protest against Nazi measures-"That'll make the 'Boches' furious!" A fine bit of historical-detective work, drawing on interviews with survivors and duly honoring those who perished. First American Edition [stated], First printing [stated].
