520    "In the summer of 1939, fourteen-year-old Jacob Koopman 
       and his older brother, Edwin, enjoy lives of prosperity 
       and contentment.  Many of the residents in their small 
       Dutch town have some connection to the family's lightbulb 
       factory.  On days when they aren't playing with friends, 
       Jacob and Edwin help their Uncle Martin on his fishing 
       boat in the North Sea, where German ships have become a 
       common sight.  When war breaks out, Jacob's world is 
       thrown into chaos.  Over the course of four years, as 
       boatmen risk everything to give Jewish refugees safe 
       passage to land abroad, Jacob is confronted with the moral
       dilemma that will change his life--and his life's mission-
       -forever"--Back cover.
