From the dust jacket: "Beginning with a brief history of the Jews in Poland, Iranek-Osmecki describes, in unprecedented detail, the organization of the Polish resistance: the smuggling of food into the ghettos, the evolution of the underground press, the development of paramilitary fighting forces inside and outside the ghetto walls, the heroic work of the Polish government in exile, and the mobilization for the Warsaw ghetto uprising. Aside from depicting conditions in the cities of Poland, he also describes the human aspects of the holocaust -- how Jews were hidden and cared for in small towns and villages, and even in forests, by Poles who were eventually murdered for their efforts by the Germans. HE WHO SAVES ONE LIFE is starkly documented by official dispatches and documents drawn from many previously unpublished sources -- newspapers, findings of government investigations, government bulletins from Poland, reports from the Jewish National Committee and the Council for Aid to Jews, pamphlets from the Polish Ministry of information, and underground press publications, as well as eyewitness accounts from Jews in the ghettos, members of the Polish underground, public officials, and the many Jews who escaped with the aid of Poles.".
