Summary
A booklet recounting wartime events in the village of Markowa (near Łańcut) in Poland, and the fate of the Ulma family in particular. About 120 Jews lived there before the war. In the summer of 1942 the Nazis murdered ca. 100 Jews in the village and the surrounding area. Some Jews hid in fields and some were hidden by Polish families in the village. Wiktoria and Józef Ulma hid eight Jews in their home, and the Szylar family hid seven Jews. An informer denounced the Ulma family, and the couple and their six children were killed along with the Jews whom they had hidden. The Jews who were hidden with the Szylar family survived the war. States that at least 17 Jews survived in Markowa. The Poles who hid Jews there were recognized by Yad Vashem in the 1990s as Righteous among the Nations.
