Schindler's List

Schindler's List by Keneally, Thomas. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780671516888.

Winner of the Booker Prize Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Award for Fiction Schindlers List is a remarkable work of fiction based on the true story of German industrialist and war profiteer, Oskar Schindler, who, confronted with the horror of the extermination camps, gambled his life and fortune to rescue 1,300 Jews from the gas chambers. Working with the actual testimony of Schindlers Jews, Thomas Keneally artfully depicts the courage and shrewdness of an unlikely savior, a man who is a flawed mixture of hedonism and decency and who, in the presence of unutterable evil, transcends the limits of his own humanity.
