Książka ukazuje kulisy akcji azylowej i ewakuacyjnej prowadzonej podczas hiszpańskiej wojny domowej (1936–1939) przez Poselstwo RP w Madrycie. Decydującą rolę odegrali w niej chargé d’affaires Leopold Koziebrodzki, organizator Schroniska Polskiego, jego administrator inż. Stefan Hoenigsfeld oraz poseł RP Marian Szumlakowski, który wynegocjował i przeprowadził ewakuację. Schronienie znalazło około 400 osób, z których 133 objęto oficjalnym azylem, a 120 – w tym najbardziej zagrożonych oficerów – uratowano i wywieziono do Polski na pokładzie ORP „Wilja”. Publikacja przybliża mało znany, a zarazem poruszający przykład skuteczności i humanitaryzmu Rzeczypospolitej w obliczu zagrożenia ludzkiego życia.

Vitam hominis tueri et conservare… The Diplomatic Asylum at the Legation of the Republic of Poland in Madrid During the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939)
The book shows the behind-the-scenes of the asylum and evacuation operation carried out during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) at the Legation of the Republic of Poland in Madrid. The decisive role was played by the chargé d'affaires Leopold Koziebrodzki, the organizer of the Polish Shelter, its administrator, engineer Stefan Hoenigsfeld, and the Polish MP Marian Szumlakowski, who negotiated and carried out the evacuation. Around 400 people found refuge, 133 of whom were granted official asylum, and 120 – including the most at-risk officers – were saved and transported to Poland on board ORP “Wilja”. The publication presents a little-known, yet moving example of effectiveness and humanitarianism of the Polish Republic in the face of threat to human life.
