Rescue
and Resistance 1944-1945
By Moshe Holczler
Description:
The young
Slovakian businessman planned to join his wife in London,
but the Nazis marched into Austria and life would never be
the same. Mandated by his illustrious father to remain in
Europe to help his people, R' Shmuel Binyomin (Wolf) Frey
embarked on a saga of rescue and relief that had reverberations
beyond his wildest dreams.

Who was
the mysterious Raoul Wallenberg, and how did R' Wolf come
to work with him? Why did the Hungarian Minister of Defense
have such a startling change of heart? Did the gypsies have
any redeemable qualities? Would his fellow Jews really turn
him over to the Germans? Where was the safest place for a
street child to be at night? What were those Nazis doing in
that building across the street? A house made entirely of
glass? How long could they fool the communists? Were those
nuns to be trusted...? Let us
follow R' Wolf to Hungary, and marvel at the incredible hashgachah
pratis, the Divine providence, that followed him through one
menacing situation after another. With unshakeable faith,
with remarkable foresight and bravery, against impossible
odds, he resisted Evil incarnate. He never thought of himself
as a hero, but his courage and ingenuity will remain with
you forever.
Budapest
'44, his story, is an unforgettable tribute to the human spirit.
