I have known about the plight of Jews in Italy during the war and have even visited and talked to people in Aliano, where Carlo Levi was held as recounted in his book "Christ Stopped At Eboli." Brava to you for tackling this important story about the Jews and how Italians saved them from extermination or deportation, and brava to you (and Vince) for bringing joy to all those Jewish families who returned to Italy and experienced reunions with the Italians in those towns thanks to your determination and hard work.
