Chiune Sugihara's place in the history of mass rescuers of Jews during the Holocaust is assured as a result of several thousand exit visas he wrote while Vice-Consul in Kaunas, Lithuania during the summer of 1940. These saved several thousand lives, including that one of my oldest friends. But this isn't the place to find out why this Japanese diplomat in an obscure town went against all the rules and continued issuing these life saving visas until he literally was forced to leave the country. In his search for Sugihara, the author leaves no stone unturned in his research but constantly supposing what might have happened though there is no evidence, and looking into every highway and byway of history during this period, makes the background obscure the foreground so that the man Sugihara is lost/hidden among the many leaves of the forest. The story is really important and I wish this were a better book. Alison Gold in her biography for young readers (teens) does a better job - and is shorter. I'd start with that.
