Review:
Anna Porter's Kasztner's Train takes us to the magnificently researched and re-constructed world of Hungary during the twin Fascist terrors of the Arrow Cross and the SS, to a world in which everything is in flux except the determination of Kasztner. It will become a classic of the times it deals with.
Thomas Keneally, author of 'Schindler's List'
[Anna Porter] vividly brings to life those frenetic months in Budapest before the Nazi collapse.
Adam Fuerstenberg, The Forward
A tale of rescue as remarkable as Wallenberg or Schindler. Kudos to Anna Porter for recovering such an important piece of forgotten history, with, at its heart, a colorful and irresistible hero--and an ending that will break your heart.
Kati Marton, author of The Great Escape

Oscar Schindler's and Raoul Wallenberg's efforts to save people from Nazi extinction are legendary; Rezso Kasztner, by contrast, is practically unknown, even though he may have been the greatest rescuer of Jews during World War II. He was also the most controversial, and that, along with the relative lack of focus on events in Hungary toward the end of the war, has no doubt led to his anonymity. Now, with the publication of Anna Porter's remarkable chronicle, Kasztner's achievements are in full view. Based on interviews with those who were on the train and with family members of those denied a place on it, as well as documents and correspondence not previously published, Anna Porter tells the dramatic full story of one of the heroes of the twentieth century." ; 6.73 X 1.57 X 233.93 inches; 464 pages.
