Goldman traveled to Israel to visit her best friend during the Holocaust. The best friend?s daughter showed Goldman a pamphlet she had acquired from the Israeli Holocaust Museum that documented activities of one man?s negotiations with the Nazi?s interior minister and SS head, Heinrich Himmler, for the release of the Jewish women from the concentration camp at Ravensbr?ck. While looking through the pamphlet, the two discovered a picture that could have been their mothers being released from the camp. Wanting to know the details of how they were saved, Goldman set out on a long and difficult path to unravel the mystery. After years of researching the pamphlet, Goldman learned that a German Jew named Norbert Masur made a treacherous journey from the safety of Sweden back into the war zone in order to secure the release of the Jewish women imprisoned at the Ravensbr?ck concentration camp. Masur not only succeeded in his mission against all odds but he contributed to the downfall of the Nazi hierarchy itself. This amazing, little-known story uncovers a piece of history about the undermining of the Nazi regime, the women of the Holocaust, and the strained but loving relationship between a survivor and her son." -- from publisher's website. 600 10 Repstein, Malka, |dapproximately 1910-1999. 610 20 Ravensbrück (Concentration camp) 600 10 Masur, Norbert, |d1901-1971. 600 10 Goldman, Stanley A. |c(Lawyer) 610 27 Ravensbrück (Concentration camp) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00723827 611 27 Jews rescue (1939-1945 : World War) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01710189 611 27 World War (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01180924 600 14 Masur, Norbert, |d1901-1971. 600 14 Goldman, Stanley A |c(Lawyer.) 600 14 Repstein, Malka. 610 24 Ravensbrück (Concentration camp.) 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xJews |xRescue |zGermany. 650 0 Jewish women in the Holocaust |zGermany. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xConcentration camps |zGermany |vBiography. 650 0 Holocaust survivors |zCalifornia |vBiography. 650 0 Children of Holocaust survivors |zCalifornia |vBiography. 650 7 Concentration camps. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00872933 650 7 Jewish women in the Holocaust. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00983091 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 650 7 BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Historical. |2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY / Holocaust. |2bisacsh 650 4 Jewish women in the Holocaust |zGermany. 650 4 World War, 1939-1945 |xJews |xRescue |zGermany. 650 4 World War, 1939-1945 |xConcentration camps |zGermany. 650 4 World War, 1939-1945 |zGermany |vBiography. 648 7 1939-1945 |2fast 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Biography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423686 852 0 |bstacks |hD804.6 |i.G65 2018 852 0 |bscstacks |hD804.6 |i.G65 2018 |tc.2
