True war & combat stories
When Nicholas Winton cancelled his skiing holiday in favour of going to Prague to visit a friend, little did he know this decision would change the course of thousands of lives, including his own. As millions of Jewish families attempted to flee the growing clutches of the brutal Nazi war of terror, this twenty-nine-year-old stockbroker decided to act, pulling off one of the most remarkable rescue missions of the century. The British Oskar Schindler tells the story of this remarkable man's life and those around him who helped him to achieve all he did.

AUTHOR: Born in 1991, Edward Abel Smith grew up in Hertfordshire, England, before moving to Oxford to study Sociology & Anthropology at Oxford Brookes University. Edward's first book published by Pen & Sword was Ian Fleming's Inspiration, a biography of the creator of James Bond.

While also giving talks on the topic around the country, he has appeared on several radio programs including BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio London, Talk Radio and BBC World Service.
