Beschrijving
This study sheds light on the struggle of the Jews who escaped to the Polish countryside and the threats and challenges they faced. Many of the Jews encountered a hostile environment of local Poles ready to denounce them to the Germans or to participate in manhunts, and in cases where they found refuge with Polish families who took them in, the dangers for both the Jews and their rescuers grew more acute as time passed.
