Get the Children Out!
The grocer, the teacher, the soldier, the Quaker... Mike Levy shines a light on the courageous deeds of twenty-two women and men who transformed the lives of the Kindertransport and other refugees. In 1938, when the Government refused to act and those around them turned a blind eye, these heroic individuals took it upon themselves to orchestrate one of the greatest lifesaving missions the world has ever seen. Until now the compelling accounts of these extraordinary rescue missions have remained untold. Mike Levy is a researcher for the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Association for Jewish Refugees, an educator with the Holocaust Education Trust and Chair of The Harwich Kindertransport Memorial and Learning Trust. In support of Safe Passage £1 from the Sale of this book will be donated to Safe Passage and used to help child refugees find legal routes to sanctuary. You can find out more about the vital work done by Safe Passage on their website.
