Description:
During the terrible years of World War II, when inhumanity and political insanity held most of the world in their grip and the Nazi domination of Europe seemed irrevocable, a miraculous event took place in Le Chambon, a small Protestant town in southern France. There, quietly, peacefully, and in full view of the Vichy government and a nearby division of the Nazi SS, Le Chambon's villagers and clergy organized to save thousands of Jewish children and adults from certain death.

What make this story supremely beautiful is simply that it happened. These events took place and therefore demand a place in our view of the world. If awareness of history has pushed us to the point of losing faith in ourselves, the case may also be, as Hallie says, that "redemption lies in remembering". Lest Innocent Blood Be Shed is one of the rarest of books, the kind that can change the way we live.
