1st Edition Reprint. Original Wrappers. 8vo. 11 pages ; 22 cm. Holocaust-era publication. Published with Tolerance is Not Enough, reprinted from The Pilot on May 26, 1945, which gave a glowing review of Bishop Richard Cushings speech. This is the first published speech given by Richard Cushing after he became Archbishop of Boston in 1944. He served as Archbishop of Boston from 1944 to 1970, and was created a cardinal in 1958. Cushing's main role was as fundraiser and builder of new churches, schools, and institutions. He was on good terms with practically the entire Boston elite, as he softened the traditional confrontation between the Catholic Irish and the Protestant upper-class. Cushing built useful relationships with Jews, Protestants, and institutions outside the usual Catholic community. He helped presidential candidate John F. Kennedy deflect fears of papal interference in American government if a Catholic became president. Cushing's high energy level allowed him to meet with many people all day, often giving lengthy speeches at night.

1st Yiddish Edition. Original Publishers Cloth, 8vo, 416 pages. Includes illustrations and map. Includes Spanish Title page: Judios de Kischeneff. Translation of Yehude Kishinov, originally published in Hebrew. Vol III in the series, Besaraber Yidn. Includes bibliographical references (pages 412-416). The name of Kishinev became known to the world at large as a result of two pogroms. The first, initiated and organized by the local and central authorities, took place during Easter on April 67, 1903 .The pogrom was preceded by a poisonous anti-Jewish campaign led by P. Krushevan , director of the Bessarabian newspaper Bessarabets, who incited the population through a constant stream of vicious articles. One of the authors of the most virulent articles was the local police chief, Levendall. In such a heated atmosphere any incident could have dire consequences, and when the body of a Christian child was found, and a young Christian woman patient committed suicide in the Jewish hospital, the mob became violent. A blood libel , circulated by the Bessarabets, spread like wildfire. (It was later proved that the child was murdered by his relatives and that the suicide of the young woman was in no way connected with the Jews.) According to official statistics, 49 Jews lost their lives and more than 500 were injured, some of them seriously; 700 houses were looted and destroyed and 600 businesses and shops were looted. The material loss amounted to 2,500,000 gold rubles, and about 2,000 families were left homeless. Both Russians and Romanians joined in the riots. Russians were sent in from other towns and the students of the theological seminaries and the secondary schools and colleges played a leading role. The garrison of 5,000 soldiers stationed in the city, which could easily have held back the mob, took no action. Public outcry throughout the world was aroused by the incident and protest meetings were organized in London, Paris, and New York. A letter of protest written in the United States was handed over to President Theodore Roosevelt to be delivered to the czar, who refused to accept it. Under the pressure of public opinion, some of the perpetrators of the pogrom were brought to justice but they received very lenient sentences. L.N. Tolstoy expressed his sympathy for the victims, condemning the czarist authorities as responsible for the pogrom. The Russian writer Vladimir Korolenko described the pogrom in his story House No. 13 as did ?.N. Bialik in his poem Be-Ir ha-Haregah (In the Town of Death).On Oct. 1920, 1905, riots broke out once more. They began as a protest demonstration by the patriots against the czar's declaration of Aug. 19, 1905, and deteriorated into an attack on the Jewish quarter in which 19 Jews were killed, 56 were injured, and houses and shops were looted and destroyed: damages amounted to 300,000 rubles. On this occasion, some of the Jewish youth organized itself into self-defense units . The two pogroms had a profound effect on the Jews of Kishinev. Between 1902 and 1905 their numbers dropped from around 60,000 to 53,243, many immigrating to the United States and the Americas, while many more left after the second attack. The economic development of the town was brought to a standstill .On July 17, 1941, Kishinev was occupied by German and Romanian units, who entered it together with units of Einsatzgruppe D. The massacre of Kishinev's Jews began immediately under the auspices of the Einsatzgruppe, and by the time the concentration of Jews into a ghetto was completed, about 10,000 had been slaughtered. ....On Oct. 4, 1941, deportations began to Transnistria , the first group containing 1,600 persons. After this, between 700 and 1,000 Jews were deported daily, the last group leaving on October 31. ...In Transnistria Jews were sent to various camps and ghettos, where two-thirds of them died from epidemics, hunger, and exposure. The exact number of dead is not known, but taking into account the proportion of those killed in Bessarabia from the time of the Romanian and German conquest until the deportations to Transnistria on the one hand, and the number of those who died in Transnistria on the other, it may be estimated that of the 65,000 Jewish inhabitants in Kishinev in 1941, 53,000 perished (JewishVirtualLibrary).

1st English Language edition. 4to. Original wrappers, xxxix + 663 pages. Illustrations throughout. In English. The book by Serge Klarsfeld, contains vital statistics of some 76, 000 Jews deported from France. Together with his wife Beate, the Paris-based Serge Klarsfeld has published lists of Jews deported from France and Belgium over the last decades. He was the leading Nazi hunter in France . France was one of the more liberal nations in opening its doors to Jewish refugees from Poland, Romania, and Germany. Some 350, 000 Jews were living in France when the Germans invaded the country in June 1940. More than half of them were refugees from Germany who had arrived during the 1930s. Many were French citizens whose families had lived in France for centuries and who were fully assimilated. Others had come to France, often from Eastern Europe, to seek a better life and escape from antisemitism. Approximately 76, 000 Jews were deported from France between 1942 and 1944. Most went to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where the vast majority were exterminated on arrival. Klarsfeld's book is a most startling document. Nearly the size of the Manhattan (NYC) telephone directory, it lists nearly 76, 000 names of Jews deported to Eastern Europe or killed in France. Names are listed in alphabetical order, according to each of the 80 convoys. Family name, first name, birth date, place of birth, and nationality are recorded for every person. Klarsfeld also provides a detailed history of each convoy. (Jewishgen 2018) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Persecutions -- France. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Registers of dead -- France.

Title translates as, Wolozin: the book of the city and of the Etz Hayyim Yeshivah. Includes articles in Hebrew, Yiddish and English. Includes bibliographical references. On 17 September 1939, the first day of the Soviet invasion of Poland, Valozhyn was occupied by the Red Army. On 14 November 1939, Valozhyn was incorporated into the Byelorussian SSR. All previously allowed religious studies were forbidden. On the fourth day of Operation Barbarossa, on 25 June, 1941 Valozhyn was bombed, captured by troops of the German Army Group Centre and mostly burned. Several Jews were murdered by German soldiers who entered the town. On the next day, a 12-member Judenrat was appointed by the Gestapo and shortly after Stanislaw Torsky, a member of the Polish National Democrats Endek party with strongly antisemitic views, was appointed mayor. On his second day as mayor, he ordered the arrest of the town doctor along with his daughter, and 10 other Jewish people, who were savagely beaten and shot. On 25 July 1941, Valozhyn was placed under the administration of the newly formed Generalbezirk Weißruthenien of Reichskommissariat Ostland. In August 1941, the Jewish residents of the town, approximately 3500 people, were moved to a Ghetto in the "Aropzu" neighbourhood, along with Jewish residents from the neighboring towns Vishnyeva, Halshany and Ashmyany. The Jews, as well as Russian prisoners in the area, were subjected to forced labour, tortured, underfed, and many of them publicly murdered. Local Christians who were caught having mercy or assisting the Jews in giving food received a similar fate ..On 5 July 1944, Valozhyn was recaptured by troops of the Soviet 3rd Belorussian Front during the Vilnius Offensive. Following its liberation, several Jews who returned openly to Valozhyn were murdered by local townspeople. It was initially raion centre in Navahrudak Voblast (1939), later in Baranavichy Voblast (19391944) and Molodechno Voblast (19441960) before passing to Minsk Region (Wikipedia).
