Viac o knihe

Today, there are over 6,000 people in the world who owe their lives to Nicholas Winton – they are descendants of the children that Sir Nicholas rescued from Nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia in 1939. What motivated a young English broker to undertake such a monumental task? This question and many others related to it are explored by Winton's daughter, Barbara. Her impressive, personally attuned book draws from historical documents and her father's memories, revealing who Sir Nicholas – who is now an incredible 105 years old – was and is, and how he came to his life motto: "If it's not impossible, there must be a way to do it."
