Softbound. 8vo. XII, 250 pages. 23 cm. First English edition. The memoir of Mietek Pemper; in collaboration with Viktoria Hertling, assisted by Marie Elisabeth Müller; translated by David Dollenmayer. Publishers description: Mietek Pempers compelling and moving memoir tells the true story of how Schindlers list really came to pass. Pemper was born in 1920 into a lively and cultivated Jewish family for whom everything changed in 1939 when the Germans invaded Poland. Evicted from their home, they were forced into the Krakow ghetto and, later, into the nearby camp of Plaszow where Pempers knowledge of the German language was put to use by the sadistic camp commandant Amon Goth. Forced to work as Goths personal stenographer from March 1943 to September 1944an exceptional job for a Jewish prisonerPemper soon realized that he could use his position as the commandants private secretary to familiarize himself with the inner workings of the Nazi bureaucracy and exploit the system to his fellow detainees advantage. Once he gained access to classified documents, Pemper was able to pass on secret information for Schindler to compile his famous lists. After the war, Pemper was the key witness of the prosecution in the 1946 trial against Goth and several other SS officers. The Road to Rescue stands as a historically authentic testimony of one mans unparalleled courage, wit, defiance, and bittersweet victory over the Nazi regime.

Original Paper Wrappers. 8vo. 207 pages ; 22 cm. In French. Title translates into English as, War Crimes and War Criminals, Reflections On International Criminal Justice, What It Is And What It Should Be. Vespasian V. Pella (b. Bucharest 4/17 January 1897 - d. New York 24 August 1960) was a Romanian legal expert. During the interwar period, he promoted the notion of international criminal proceedings against heads of state found guilty of crimes against humanity, through the establishment of a special international tribunal for that purpose. In 1938 he served as President of the Committee on Legal Questions of the League of Nations. In 1944 he was appointed Romanian Ambassador to Switzerland, and in that capacity saved some Romanian Jews from deportation to Nazi occupied Poland. In 1948, he took part in formulating the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. He kept advocating the idea of establishing an international criminal court, and in 1950 presented his proposals to that effect to the International Law Commission (UN document A/CN.4/39) , which deliberated over the issue in its meetings of 5 to 6 July 1950 (Wikipedia 2015) .

Offprint. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. Pages 187-196 (ie. 10 pages) ; 24 cm. Includes additional title page in Hebrew. Abraham J. Peck, born in a DP camp in Landsberg, Germany, is a prolific Holocaust scholar, professor, and former advisor to Elie Wiesel. A brief history of the study of DP camps and of the lives of Holocaust survivors after the war. Precious little scholarly attention has been given to these areas. The reasons for such a state of affairs are numerous, ranging from the previous general inattention paid to the Holocaust (a phenomenon now corrected perhaps to excess) , to the problem, especially in America, of linguistic competency among graduate students and even accomplished scholars, to the very real problem of artificial periodization in which the twin pillars of Holocaust and Redemption allow little room for self-standing research areas between them. Interestingly, there appears to be a typo in this offprint. Division B of the Eighth World Congress of Jewish Studies was The History of the Jewish People. Division A was The Period of the Bible. Given the pagination and subject, this was likely part of Division B. SUBJECT(S) : DP Camps, Holocaust, Jewish studies. One stain that does not affect text. Slight toning. Very minimal edgewear.

MANNI 2009 DEDICA AUTOGRAFA DELL'AUTORE IN ANTEPORTA, PER IL RESTO INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. Protagonista di una delle più crudeli stragi naziste, l'eccidio delle Fosse Ardeatine, Wilhelm Zangen sconta in Italia gli arresti domiciliari, dopo l'estradizione dall'Argentina, dove si era rifugiato al termine della guerra, come tanti altri ufficiali del Terzo Reich. Il caso, inaspettatamente, gli offre l'opportunità di aiutare il fratello di una delle vittime del 24 marzo '44, un povero vecchio cui è stata occupata abusivamente la casa popolare. La vicenda paradossale, che vede i diabolici fantasmi della storia nella parte dei paladini dei più deboli e lo Stato democratico nella parte di un giustiziere dei poveri inetto e inefficace, tocca il tema della divisione delle colpe, dell'impossibilità di distinguere con certezza il bene dal male, dello scambio dei ruoli tra vittima e carnefice.
Publishers cloth. 8vo. XIV, 218 pages. 24 cm. Publishers description: On September 27, 1939, less than four weeks after the Nazi invasion, Poland ceased to exist as a nation. Only three weeks had passed since ten-year-old Hanna Davidson had said goodbye to her father, Simon, and older brother, Kazik, who had been drafted and sent to defend Warsaw. Now she believed she would never see them again. Hanna and her mother, Sophia, an artist and intellectual, found themselves subjected to Hitlers efforts to dehumanize Polands Jewish population. There seemed no choice but to cling to what shreds of stability they could by submitting to a ruthless tyranny. But when they got word that Simon and Kazik were alive in Bialystok in the Soviet-occupied zone of Poland, Hanna and her mother made a fearful decisionthey would risk a harrowing escape from Nazi Poland into relatively safer Soviet territory. After a few hasty good-byes to family and with only the clothes on their backs, they left their apartmentjust one hour before soldiers would come for Sophia. If the two-percent chance of surviving the crossing were not daunting enough, then the Davidsons prospects in the Soviet Union should have been. For Simon Davidsons past as a prominent businessman (and capitalist) and political activism in the socialist Bund (an organization banned by the communists) branded him as undesirable. Moreover, he had been born in Russiaescaping years before by fooling Soviet authorities into presuming him deadand his presence could place those members of his family who remained behind in danger. So for the sake of their very livesand those of relatives they could never publicly acknowledgethe Davidsons would be compelled to invent and memorize not only their own new identities but also an extended family history. Moreover, avoiding persecution by the Soviet regime would entail struggling virtually every day to maintain a pretense of allegiance to Stalin. As recounted by Hanna, the Davidsons journey into the Soviet interior makes for an extraordinary story. More than a memoir of survival, the Davidsons story is clearly one of a family whose spirit could not be destroyed by persecution, war, famine, or political oppression.

First edition and 1 of 5000 copies published. Period boards with photographic front cover mounted on front. 4to, 136 pages. Folio. In Russian. Jewish Massacre. 1918-1921. With numerous photographic illustrations. A detailed album highlighting the horrific results of a wave of ferocious pogroms afflicted upon Jewish communities in the Ukraine including Skvira (Skver) , Poltava, Uman, Kiev and Yelizavetgrad during the Civil War years of 1918-21. The text has a distinctly Nationalist element, portraying Jews saved from the attacking native population by the Red Army. The publication was issued by Z. S. Ostrovsky on behalf of the Jewish Committee for Aid to Victims of Pogroms. With well over 200 photos, this work is based on an exhibit of images and documents put together by the Jewish Committee of Victims of Pogroms which was shown in 1923 in Moscow. Its a brutal depiction of the third set of pogroms which swept in Russia from 1918 and 1921 in the wake of the Russian Revolution, much worse than the earlier massacres in the 1880s and then again in 1903-1906. This post-war set of pogroms were led by bands of soldiers from the disintegrating tsarist army. Ostrovsky's work doesnt state the fact that the first pogroms to be accompanied by slaughter of Jews were perpetrated by units of the Red Army which retreated from the Ukraine in the spring of 1918 before the German army. These pogroms took place under the slogan "Strike at the bourgeoisie and the Jews." The Jewish communities of Novgorod-Severski and Glukhov in northern Ukraine were the most severely affected. These pogroms reached their climax in the massacre at Proskurov on Feb. 15, 1919, when 1,700 Jews were done to death within a few hours. On the following day, a further 600 victims fell in the neighboring village of Felshtin (Gvardeiskoye). Those responsible for these pogroms went unpunished, and henceforward the Ukrainian soldiers considered themselves free to spill Jewish blood. The Jews regarded Simon Petlyura, the prime minister of the Ukraine and commander of its forces, as responsible for these pogroms. The general chaos which reigned in the Ukraine in 1919 resulted in the formation of large and small bands of peasants who fought against the Red Army. The Jews in the villages, shtetls, and towns there were constantly terrorized by the peasants, who extorted money and supplies from them or robbed and murdered them. One of the most notorious pogroms carried out by the peasant bands was that in Trostyanets in May 1919, when over 400 people lost their lives. In the fall of 1919, there was a wave of pogroms committed by the counterrevolutionary White Army, under the command of General A.I. Denikin. (credit: Klinebooks). See Z.
