Summary:
The story of a group of refugee children rescued by Nicholas Winton from the Nazi threat in 1939. It was a short event in his life but a critical one for those whose lives were saved. That story in detail, exploring the motivation and early experiences that led to him acting to save young lives, while others looked the other way. His motto "If something is not impossible, then there must be a way to do it" led him to follow his own convictions and undertake an operation others had dismissed as unnecessary or too difficult. Written by his daughter.
