It features the first person accounts of rescuers and of survivors whose stories address the basic issue of individual responsibility: the notion that one person can act--and that those actions can make a difference. These rescuers are true heroes, but modest ones. They did a thousand ordinary things--opening doors, hiding and feeding strangers, keeping secrets--in an extraordinary time. For this, they are known as Righteous Among the Nations of the World.\u003cbr\u003e The rescuers and survivors are from many countries in Europe--Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, France, Bulgaria, Poland, Germany--and they tell their stories with simplicity and dignity. Each story is interwoven with old snapshots of rescuers and survivors, their homes, their hiding places, and the communities in which they lived.\u003cbr\u003e Noted author, teacher, and human rights activist, Elie Wiesel, helps us to ask: what made these people different? He points out how those who helped Jews during the Holocaust changed history by their actions. \u003ci\u003eThe Courage to Care\u003c\/i\u003e reminds readers of the power of individual action.\u003cbr\u003e This compelling book is the companion volume to the award-winning film, \u003ci\u003eThe Courage to Care\u003c\/i\u003e, and includes the personal narratives of the same persons in the film and many others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePersonal narratives and essays that have been collected in an effort to preserve the memory of noble deeds, to bear witness to the world that it was possible to help Jews in Nazi Germany and occupied Europe during World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.4 x 11.29 x 8.02 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 1989\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52618366583091,"sku":"9780814774069","price":68.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/WDFPakNVcXBDL3VhZ0JuMlFtOWVLZz09.webp?v=1761904670","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-courage-to-care-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
