Presents their biographies, dwelling on their survival under the German occupation. All three left Kraków for Lwów in September 1939, only to be caught by the German conquest of the city in 1941. Stern was interned in the Lvov ghetto; during its liquidation in June 1943 he managed to escape from a death pit and reached Hungary, where he survived. Both Rosenstein and Nacht-Samborski were provided with "Aryan" papers and managed to survive in Warsaw. Pp. 121-138 deal with the Poles who helped Jews during the Holocaust, dwelling on those who took part in the rescue of Stern, Rosenstein, and Nacht-Samborski.
