Excerpt: Men have always vied with each other to keep alive in books the memory of one who has given his life for a fellow man. But the name and fate of the man sentenced to receive such a fight has generally been unheeded and forgotten. The is the story of one who did not know what else to do with the gift of another's life except to live on for the life of the giver and in this way to have experience doubly of God and the world. It is a dark tradition, spoken about in certain neighborhoods of Poland, and it is also to be found in a few old books -- dry and brief. But the truth in it is still to be separated from the trimmings of superstition and just what happened must be clearly told to show how wisely it was said that a man must serve God with every impulse both good and bad.
