Elsie Kuhn-Leitz came from one of the wealthiest families in Germany. She risked everything to help those who were being persecuted by the Nazis.

It is accompanied by an introduction from the photographer, Henri Cartier-Bresson, who was a personal friend of Elsie and her family, and used to enjoy their hospitality. "Elsie's War" is a photographic testimony of courage in the face of the Holocaust - a book to inspire the children of the 21st century.
