The Peter Vis Book Collection

The Peter Vis Collection is made up of outstanding individuals whom I deeply admire and respect. I think these individuals are remarkable because they have made positive contributions to humanity; I refer to them as individuals of light because they have kindness in their hearts. This section of the website is also devoted to the survivors of the Shoah, which is another term for the Holocaust.
