Publisher's Synopsis
"Karski is a story of incredible valor, a story of personal courage and uncommon determination to bring to Allied leaders the awful truth about the mass murder of the Jews of Europe. It is the story of a man who understood the poisonous effects of bigotry and hatred. His fight against Nazi oppression came to an end in 1945. His fight against anti–Semitism has never stopped." —Miles Lerman, Chairman, United States Holocaust Memorial Council
