Stand back.
Yet another chapter in the bitter and sensitive debate whether Poland profited from the Nazi's extermination of its Jews.
A soon to be published book, "The Golden Harvest," by Jan Gross and Irena Grudzinska Gross, claims that Poles plundered Jewish wealth from graves.
Its cover shows alleged Polish peasants digging up human remains at the Treblinka death camp just after the war in a search for gold.
Gross, a history professor at Princeton University, apparently likes this topic that stirs controversy and sells books..
His books have often examined the complex relationship between Christian and Jewish Poles during WW2 era.
