It is nice to read about the nameless and faceless people, the unsung heroes, like the doctors in this book who reached out to so many Jews in their hour of need. Stories like these re-instill one's faith in humanity.Prashant C.

Years ago I read a book (fiction, not mystery) that featured the Danish Resistance (Leeway Cottage by Beth Gutcheon). I have wanted to re-read that for a while.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644690488802388716.post-34359322998942082672014-05-17T08:41:31.817-06:002014-05-17T08:41:31.817-06:00Margot: Thanks for the comment.

I have read enough WW II history not to need the chronological historical facts. I now enjoy reading these ancedotal histories.Bill Selneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17268006369157307593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1644690488802388716.post-19961917883144305022014-05-17T08:39:20.960-06:002014-05-17T08:39:20.960-06:00Moira: Thanks for the comment.I encourage all visi...Moira: Thanks for the comment.I encourage all visiting Copenhagen to go to the Museum.

And I don't know nearly enough about the Danish Resistance during the war, nor about the role the Danish people played. Thanks for sharing.

I had known almost nothing of Denmark's war history till then, but now would like to read this book and find out more.Clothes In Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14680610242823846662noreply@blogger.com
