About this book

Diane Ackerman recounts how Warsaw zookeepers Antonina and Jan Żabiński used their position to shelter people in wartime Poland. Drawing on diaries, memoirs, interviews and archival records, she reconstructs their rescue efforts alongside the zoo's animal life. The historical account connects the couple's daily surroundings with the practical risks of helping people facing persecution.
