Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Russians are advancing on Budapest. The Nazis, in a last desperate attempt to destroy Hungarian Jewry, have sent Adolf Eichmann to round up as many Jews as possible for the gas chambers of Auschwitz. It is a time of chaos and terror. Two Swedish diplomats with their colleagues in the Swedish legation decide that they must act to save as many as possible. One of them, Raoul Wallenberg, was to vanish after the war into Soviet Russia. His story has often been told. The other, Per Anger, was to be his partner in the great rescue effort. This is Per's story, and it once again proves the great truth that "one man can make a difference." Per Anger's determination and heroism were to be repeated twelve years later, in 1956, when he came to the aid of Hungarians fleeing another oppressor - Soviet communism.
Download or read book Raoul Wallenberg written by Ingrid Carlberg and published by MacLehose Press. This book was released on 2016-03-08 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An honorary citizen of the United States and Canada, and designated as one of the Righteous Among the Nations by Israel, Raoul Wallenberg was a modest envoy to Hungary whose heroism in Budapest at the height of the Holocaust saved countless Jewish lives, and ultimately cost him his own. A series of unlikely coincidences led to the appointment of Wallenberg, by trade a poultry importer, as Sweden's Special Envoy to Budapest in 1944. With remarkable bravery, Wallenberg created a system of protective passports, and sheltered thousands of desperate Jews in buildings he claimed were Swedish libraries and research institutes. As the war drew to a close, his invaluable work almost complete, Wallenberg voluntarily went to meet with the Soviet troops who were relieving the city. Arrested as a spy, Wallenberg disappeared into the depths of the Soviet system, never to be seen again. In this definitive biography, noted journalist Ingrid Carlberg has carried out unprecedented research into all elements of Wallenberg's life, narrating with vigor and insight the story of a heroic life, and navigating with wisdom and sensitivity the truth about his disappearance and death.

Book excerpt: "In September 1991 a Swedish-Russian Working Group was appointed in order to try to establish joint efforts what actually happened after the disappearance of the Swedish diplomat in January 1945. In connection with the collapse of the Soviet Union many doors were opened, and previously inconceivable investigations became possible. With the aim of 'leaving no stone unturned' the Working Group was given access to the former Soviet archive systems and had the opportunity to talk to former members of the Soviet security organs. The working group presented its findings at a press conference in Stockholm on 12 January, 2001"--From the web site.
