Description
Ghetto Diary is a poignant and powerful account of one man's unwavering dedication to his children during the darkest days of World War II.
Janusz Korczak, a renowned pediatrician and author, risked everything to care for over 200 orphaned children in the Warsaw Ghetto. Despite numerous offers to save himself, Korczak chose to stay with his charges until the end, even when faced with the threat of deportation to the Treblinka death camp.
This gripping diary, now available in paperback for the first time, provides a unique insight into Korczak's remarkable courage and humanity. A new introduction by Betty Jean Lifton adds context and depth to this important historical document.
