Book on Polish Jews' WWII ordeal touches raw nerve

A new book that tells how some Poles enriched themselves by stealing from the corpses of their Jewish neighbors during the Nazi occupation has touched a raw nerve in a country still deeply scarred by World War Two.

 

"Golden Harvest" by Jan Tomasz Gross and his wife Irena Grudzinska-Gross will not be published until March 10, but leaked copies have stirred up heated debate in Poland and forced the book's publisher to defend the book and its findings. (Reuters)
