Schindler's List

Based on a true story, this extraordinary novel tells how German war profiteer and factory director Oskar Schindler came to save more Jews from the gas chambers than any other single person during World War II. In this milestone of Holocaust literature, Thomas Keneally uses the actual testimony of the Schindlerjuden—Schindler's Jews—to brilliantly portray the courage and cunning of an ordinary man striving to do good in the midst of unspeakable evil.
