An honorary citizen of the United States and Canada, and designated as one of the Righteous Among the Nations by Israel, Raoul Wallenberg was a modest envoy to Hungary whose heroism in Budapest at the height of the Holocaust saved countless Jewish lives, and ultimately cost him his own. A series of unlikely coincidences led to the appointment of Wallenberg, by trade a poultry importer, as Sweden's Special Envoy to Budapest in 1944. With remarkable bravery, Wallenberg created a system of protective passports, and sheltered thousands of desperate Jews in buildings he claimed were Swedish libraries and research institutes. As the war drew to a close, his invaluable work almost complete, Wallenberg voluntarily went to meet with the Soviet troops who were relieving the city. Arrested as a spy, Wallenberg disappeared into the depths of the Soviet system, never to be seen again. In this definitive biography, noted journalist Ingrid Carlberg has carried out unprecedented research into all elements of Wallenberg's life, narrating with vigor and insight the story of a heroic life, and navigating with wisdom and sensitivity the truth about his disappearance and death.

A fascinating true story of one man's effort to save Swedish diplomat -War Hero Raoul Wallenberg from the dungeons of the gulag where he was thrown after the KGB kidnapped him from Hungary on Jan 17, 1945. Author Morris Wolff sued the Soviets for Wallenberg's release and won a 39 million dollar verdict. Then Wolff went to Israel to enlist the Mossad in a rescue effort and in 1998 enlisted former US Ambassador to Moscow David M Evans. Evans, in the final pages of the book, goes to Kazan and amazingly finds Wallenberg alive in a hospital overlooking the Volga River. Read the details of this great rescue effort and the road blocks placed in Wolff's path by the governments of Sweden, Russia and the USA. Wolff wins the US Symphony Peace Award for his efforts at Carnegie Hall in New York in September of 1993 and then doubles his effort to rescue Wallenberg----a bloodhound selfless effort of 27 years with only certain members of the Wallenberg familiy helping him---while the majority of the family fight vociferously against Wolff's innocent and dedicated effort. The rich bankers in the family fight lawyer Wolff at every step of the way. They have much to hide as collaborators. They do not want Raoul free. This mystery-detective story---all true--will educate, inform and thrill you!

"In September 1991 a Swedish-Russian Working Group was appointed in order to try to establish joint efforts what actually happened after the disappearance of the Swedish diplomat in January 1945. In connection with the collapse of the Soviet Union many doors were opened, and previously inconceivable investigations became possible. With the aim of 'leaving no stone unturned' the Working Group was given access to the former Soviet archive systems and had the opportunity to talk to former members of the Soviet security organs. The working group presented its findings at a press conference in Stockholm on 12 January, 2001"--From the web site.
