News / POLES FEEL LIKE JEWS HAVE TOO MUCH CONTROL IN POLAND - TRUE? [209]

Both Poles and Jews on this forum should read a book about Poles who rescued Jews in Poland during WW2. Code Name: Zegota - Rescuing Jews in Occupied Poland, 1942-1945 by Irenewski Tomaszewski and Tecia Werbowski (Santa Barbara, Ca. Praeger, 2010),

This is the second revised edition of a book first published in 1994, and written by two women: Tecia Werbowski, a Jewish girl who with her mother was rescued from the Lvov ghetto by Polish Catholics, later identified as members of Zagota; and Irene Tomaszewski, a Polish girl born in a Soviet labor camp in Siberia soon after her parents were deported there. These two met in Montreal in the early 1990's and joined together to relate this account of rescuing Jews in occupied Poland.
