In The Ambiguity of Virtue, author Bernard Wasserstein examines the dilemmas that confronted Jews under Nazi occupation through the life of German-Jewish social worker Gertrude Van Tijn who worked with the Nazi-appointed Jewish Council in Amsterdam.
Some later called Gertrude a heroine for the choices she made that enabled many Jews to escape while others denounced her as a collaborator.
