1st edition, original wrappers, 12mo. 7 pages. 15 cm. On the 1-year anniversary of the uprising, Rabbi Hertz discusses the worlds reaction, asking, What has been--we wonder--the reaction in Allied lands to this stark Satanism? He praises church leaders among the few who were vigorous in their protests, answering rhetorically, stating, Well the Press--with few honourable exceptions--passed it over in silence; and the larger public has thus remained unmoved by this mass crucifixion of a whole people. Only men and women of light and leading realised that Nazism was a maniacal assault on all the ethical foundations of society--pity, decency, and respect for life; an attempt to make a clean sweep of the sacred Heritage of Man. Foremost among them were the Heads of the Churches, with their passionate plea that, as the crimes were unheard-of, unheard-of measures were called for to stop them. (page 6) . The author, Joseph Herman Hertz (1872-1946, London) , was chief rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth and author of books on Judaism and of influential commentaries on the Bible expressing a fundamentalist viewpoint....Hertz was elected to his post as chief rabbi in England in 1913. His career in that position was a colourful one. He attacked the newly formed Liberal Jewish movement (a movement more or less equivalent to U. S. Reform Judaism) . His powerful attacks on anti-Semitism included one, in the presence of the Russian ambassador, against Russian discrimination.

1st edition. Original Paper Wrappers, 8vo 32 pages. In Hungarian. Title translates as, Those who Died and Fought for the Honor of our People. Heavily illustrated catalog of an exhibit in Budapest, 1946, to illustrate the persecution of the Hungarian Jews during World War II. Printed entirely on glossy paper, this catalog includes 55 photos, facsimiles, and other images from the exhibition, primarily anti-Nazi Hungarian Jewish artwork and posters, but also anti-Semitic posters, death cam photos, and scenes of new life in Palestine. The picture material was collected by the Jewish Agency for Palestine Documentation Department in January 1946 (translated from page 2) . The Foreword notes (translated) that The first anniversary of the liberation of the Budapest ghetto has arrived. It is time to bring to the world the terrible documents of the tragedy of Judaism and put the still unbelievers who turn their heads into thinking; those who do not believe because they do not want to believe. But not only the persuasion of the doubters is the goal of this attempt, but also of recalling over and over again for those who forget quickly. This is the purpose of this sad picture book, with all the cries, complaints and death blows coming from all sides. These pictures are just dull shadows of reality.

The author discusses the history of Germany, the Nazi party, and other groups with similar ideas, with a special examination of Nazi philosophy, all from an explicitly Christian perspective, with many references to Jesus Christ. While not supportive of Nazism, the book is also not very critical either. "We cannot condone the crimes of the Nazi regime. Yet, we can have forgivness in our hearts for those who have committed them even as we have for the Inquisitors of the Medieval Church who in their zeal for God's kingdom subjected literally millions to torture and death in the name of a religion born of love and mercy.
