Inspired by his Huguenot heritage, Pastor Toureille participated in international Protestant church efforts to combat Nazism during the 1930s and headed a major refugee aid organization in Vichy France during World War II. After the war, Pastor Toureille was honored by the Jewish organization Yad Vashem as one of the "Righteous Among the Nations." In telling Toureille's story, Tela Zasloff also depicts the wide-ranging network of Protestant pastors and lay people in southern French villages who participated in an aggressive rescue effort. She delves into their motivations, including their heritage as members of a religious minority. Toureille's rescue work under the Vichy regime, partly official and then increasingly clandestine as the war progrressed. was a crucial part of the French non-violent "spiritual resistance" against Nazism. 606 $aRighteous Gentiles in the Holocaust$vBiography 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xJews$xRescue$zFrance 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yGerman occupation, 1940-1945 607 $aFrance$xEthnic relations 615 0$aRighteous Gentiles in the Holocaust 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xJews$xRescue 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 676 $a940.53/1835/09448 700 $aZasloff$b Tela$0949844 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972007303321 996 $aA rescuer's story$92147126 997 $aUNINA
