Description
Raoul Wallenberg is one of the Second World War's greatest heroes. His courageous actions in Budapest at the height of the Holocaust saved countless lives, and ultimately cost him his own. Though made an honorary citizen of Australia, the U.S.A. and elsewhere, Wallenberg's achievements remain little known. Ingrid Carlberg draws on revelatory research to narrate the story of his heroic life, and to navigate with wisdom and sensitivity the truth about his mysterious death.
