A train in winter

an extraordinary story of women, friendship and resistance in occupied France

Describes how 230 French women of various ages and classes were accused of being members of the French Resistance and sent on a train to Auschwitz in January, 1943. Tells of how the accused women distributed leaflets, printed subversive newspapers, hid escaped Allied airmen, transported weapons, and passed messages. Draws on interviews with these women and their families; German, French, and Polish archives; and documents held by World War II resistance organizations.
