The Righteous Few

Meer over het boek

Courage and compassion define the actions of Frans and Mien Wijnakker, a Christian couple in Nazi-occupied Netherlands who risked their lives to save over two dozen Jews during the Holocaust. Living a simple life with their four children, their commitment to helping others began with a single act of kindness that evolved into a robust rescue network. Their harrowing experiences, including aiding a pregnant Jewish woman in hiding, highlight their extraordinary bravery and dedication, earning them the title "Righteous Among the Nations" from Yad Vashem.
