Among the unexpected dangers, they have had to cope with an alarming resurgence of Nazism in European countries, the pass on of Arab terrorism, and the impact of the Jewish talk about on European life.

An inspiring report of your tenacious people who have rebuilt their lives when confronted with incomprehensible horror, A Chosen Few is a testament to ethnic survival and a celebration of the deep bonds that endure between Jews and European civilization.
