The stirring memoir of the courage and strength of Beth Jacob students and the acts of kindness and heroism they performed even while caught between the jaws of the Nazi monster. In the ghettos and in the concentration camps, the fire of Torah and faith burned strong and clear in the hearts of these young martyrs and survivors.When the Nazis stormed into Poland, it was as if the legendary dragon of Krakow had returned to life, breathing fire and wreaking havoc. The defenseless Jewish populace became its prey and, while the world looked on in silence, countless innocents were victimized by the bloodthirsty monster. But the daughters of Beth Jacob, heirs to Frau Sarah Schenirer"s legacy of lovingkindness and devotion to Torah, were undaunted. They banded together to confront the beast, armed with the most powerful weapon of all: the holy Torah and its teachings.
