"One bright November morning in 1938, Herschel Grynspan, a seventeen-year-old German Jew hiding in Paris, walked into the German embassy and gunned down Baron Ernst vom Rath, the highest ranking Nazi diplomat he could find. Herschel had finally reached a breaking point when he heard that his family had been expelled from Germany. The SS had beaten and bullwhipped them across the border into Poland and now they were starving to death."--Book Flap.
