New York, N.Y. Grove Press, 2003. First American Edition [stated], First printing [stated]. Hardcover. 308 pages. Includes 20 black and white illustrations. Foreword by Paul Spiegel. Afterword to the English-language edition. Bibliography. Appendix: the deportees. Marion Schreiber was born in 1942 in Drossen and was an editor at Der Spiegel for sixteen years. The spring of 1943 was a desperate season for the Jews of Brussels. The resistance movement had successfully bombed the SS headquarters that January, but anti-Jewish laws were tightening, and a camp had been set up in the nearby town of Mechelen to transport Belgian Jews to Auschwitz. One day in April, resistance fighter Youra Livchitz, a young doctor, discovered the departure date of the next transport train. With only one weekend in which to organize a raid, Youra recruited two school friends, Jean Franklemon and Robert Maistriau, to pull off one of the most daring rescues of the entire war. Equipped with only three pairs of pliers, a hurricane lamp covered in red paper, and a single pistol, the men ambushed the train, which was transporting 1,618 Jews to Auschwitz. These three men freed seventeen men and women before the German guards opened fire. Miraculously, by the time the convoy had reached the German border another 225 prisoners had managed to escape and found shelter. The three young rescuers were turned in by a double agent, imprisoned, and killed. Marion Schreiber's gripping book about the only Nazi death train in World War II to be ambushed draws on private documents, photographs, archive material, and police reports, as well as original research, including interviews with the surviving escapees.

Tim Sebastian (born 13 March 1952) is an English television journalist and novelist. He is the moderator of Conflict Zone and New Arab Debates on Deutsche Welle. He previously worked for the BBC, where he hosted Doha Debates and was the first presenter of HARDtalk. Sebastian also presented Bloomberg TV's The Outsider, an India-focused debating program.

New York: Doubleday, 2010. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. viii, [2], 482, [4] pages. Illustrations. Notes. Index. Tom Segev (born March 1, 1945) is an Israeli historian, author and journalist. He is associated with Israel's New Historians, a group challenging many of the country's traditional narratives. Segev worked during the 1970s as a correspondent for Maariv in Bonn. He writes a weekly column for the newspaper Haaretz. His books have appeared in fourteen languages. In The Seventh Million: The Israelis and the Holocaust (1993), Segev explores the impact of the Holocaust on the identity, ideology and politics of Israel. Although controversial, it was praised by Elie Wiesel. In One Palestine, Complete: Jews and Arabs Under the British Mandate, a New York Times Editor's Choice Best Book (2000) and a recipient of a National Jewish Book Award in the Israel category, Segev describes the era of the British Mandate in Palestine (1917–1948). Segev's history of the social and political background of the Six-Day War, 1967: Israel, the War, and the Year That Transformed the Middle East (2006) states that there was no existential threat to Israel. Segev also doubts that the Arab neighbors would have attacked Israel. Large segments of the Israeli population had a real fear that the Egyptians and Syrians would eliminate them. That fear pressured the Israeli government that it opted for a pre-emptive attack. The Jordanian army's attack on West Jerusalem provided a pretext to invade East Jerusalem, according to Segev. Even though the occupation of East Jerusalem was not politically planned, the author considers that it was always desired. More
