A very inspiring story about how a few men's refusal to give up hope resulted in the rescue of many. I'd read another book about the rise of Tito and it was chilling to see how he didn't mind slandering his rival and taking credit for the good he'd done in order to take power; it was also sad to see that Yugoslavia would fall to unrest and a totalitarian government simply for lack of good leadership.
I'd have enjoyed it even more without the frequent profanity and with the addition of a bibliography for further reading/more research.
This is a whole new part of World War II that I never knew existed. I was really inspired by the sacrifice of these so many people. Sometimes it switched between so many people it was hard to follow but a must read for anyone into history.
Great story almost ruined by terrible writing. Despite the flaws in the writing, the story did manage to peek through and it was interesting and inspirational.
