1st edition, Original photographic wrappers, 8vo, 28 pages plus 8 plates of photos. In Czech. Early pulication (1945) from just after liberation, documenting the Nazi Massacre at Lidice, Czechslovakia. On June 10, 1942 the village of Licide was totally destroyed by the members of the Ordnungspolizei and the SD (Sicherheitsdienst) in revenge for the assassination of Deputy Reich Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, Reinhard Heydrich on May 27, 1942. Soon after Heydrich's funeral, Hitler ordered that any town found to have hidden his killers was to be burned to the ground and leveled to the ground. All men over 16 were to be shot, women and children are to be sent to concentration camps with children who were suitable for "Germanisation" to be placed in SS families. The Nazis chose Lidice because its residents were suspected of harboring partisans and were falsely associated by aiding team members of "Operation Anthropoid" (code name for the assassination plot) . On June 10, 1942 Hitler's orders were carried out and Lidice and its citizens were obliterated. Light wear, expected toning to paper, margins of some photo plates are a bit wavy with stains, but are otherwise very good. (KH-9-12)

Softbound. 8vo. 387 pages. 21 cm. First edition. In Portuguese. Title translates as: A Short History of Anti-Semitism. The author of this chronological study of anti-Jewish persecution is a Brazilian-born BBC official with a background in classical studies, and the richest part of his 2500-year narrative deals with antiquity-which featured no anti-Semitism in the modern sense. [ ] Also notable is the account of Jewish fortunes in Brazil under the relatively tolerant Dutch colonialists and the relatively ineffectual Portuguese Inquisition. [Ineffectually] Massacres and expulsions are viewed as mere unpredictable epidemics. By the same token, in the modern period Morais describes manipulations of popular backwardness like the intelligence-agency, forgery of the Protocols of Zion; yet the emphasis is on the general psychology of stereotypes and ethnocentrism, rather than the deliberate destruction of the Enlightenment tradition from above.

Original Paper Wrappers. Small 8vo. 276 pages. Ports. 21 cm. In Spanish. Title translates to English as, Janus Korczak: Teacher and Martyr. Korczak was a Polish author, educator, and social worker. Born into a wealthy and assimilated Warsaw family, qualified as a physician and soon became interested in the poor, working as a volunteer in summer camps for underprivileged children. In 1911 he became the head of a new Jewish orphanage in Warsaw. His educational approach, revolutionary in its time, gave children a system of self-government and the opportunity of producing their own newspaper, Maly Przeglad ("Little Journal") , which appeared as a weekly supplement to the Zionist daily Nasz Przeglad (192039) . His success prompted the authorities to secure his aid in establishing a parallel non-Jewish orphanage near Warsaw. With the rise of Hitler and the spread of antisemitism, Korczak's Jewish consciousness deepened and he became Poland's non-Zionist representative on the Jewish Agency. After the Nazi invasion of Poland, he strove to protect the orphanage in the Warsaw Ghetto, to which it had been transferred in 1940, and rescued many other hapless youngsters. He was sent to Treblinka, along with 200 of his orphans, where he died. EJ, 2007. Translated by Esther G. De Adin from the original Polish, Janus Korczak. Spine repaired and reinforced with tape.
