From Booklist:
During the summer of 1940, Chiune Sugihara, Japan's acting consul in Kaunas (now Kovno), Lithuania, with the help of Jan Zwartendijk, the Dutch acting consul there, saved 2,178 Polish Jews by providing them with foreign transit visas. Much has been written about Sugihara, but this book focuses on the refugees' journey from Poland to Lithuania, then across the Soviet Union on the Trans-Siberian Railroad to the port of Vladivostok, by ship across the Sea of Japan to Tsuruga, and by train to Kobe. A majority of them survived World War II in Japanese-occupied Shanghai. With an introduction by Susan Bachrach, the narrative offers a profile of the refugees and details their journey and time spent in Shanghai, where they struggled to live in broken-down, cramped accommodations and with a scarcity of food. There, too, 300 students and rabbis of the Mir Yeshiva continued their rigorous studies. The book, with 335 photographs and illustrations, 150 in color, is a companion volume to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's exhibition of the same name. George Cohen
