The book tells the touching story of the Dutch resistance group led by left wing teacher Joop Westerweel who managed to save some 300 Jews from the Nazi persecution. The Jews, mostly young German and Austrian Palestine Pioneers, were hidden in the Netherlands, partly brought to France and over the Pyrenees to Spain. Joop Westerweel paid with his life for his activities. Other members of the group ended up in concentration camps.
