Publishers cloth. 4to. 224 pages. 26 cm. First American edition. Includes 150 black and white photographic plates. Six million Jews were murdered by the Nazis in the Second World War. More than half of them--men, women and children--were brought hundreds and even thousands of miles across Europe to their deaths, forced into sealed railway trucks and shunted towards the unknown. Who were these people? Where did they come from? At what point did they know what was to become of them? How did they conduct themselves in these final days, and hours? Here, Martin Gilbert relates the fate of Jewish communities as far scattered as France and Rumania, Holland and Greece, plucked out from every corner of Europe, uprooted from their homes, separated from their loved ones, tortured, starved, shot and gassed, under barbaric conditions. On their way to death, no torment was spared them. Their journeys were a transition from hardship to hell: millions of unknown sagas of tragedy, courage, humanity and despair. Yet some, miraculously, survived. (publisher description) . Subjects: Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) Holocaust. Light shelf wear. Very good condition in good jacket. (HOLO2-102-30)
1st separate edition. Original wrappers, 12mo, 15 pages, 15 cm. Holocaust-era plea for continued support for the war in Europe from both the US government as well as from the Yishuv and world Jewry in general. Reprinted from: Palestine and Middle East, October, 1942. The author, Leo Herrmann, was Secretary-General of Keren Hayesod (Palestine Foundation Fund) . He says, The historical foundation of our demands, the moral basis which we must establish by our way of life in the country, the unparalleled needs of Jewry today, particularly suffering Continental Jewry-all these are absolutely fundamental elements in the call we must make for the worlds aid. This is the point that we reach by careful and systematic consideration of our position. We need self-help; we need the Keren Hayesod. Things cannot and will not remain as they are. We shall maintain our claim for inclusion in the great measures of aid for the whole world which have begun in the Lease and Lend policy, that first step towards the world of freedom and democracy in which alone the Jewish People and Eretz Israel have a future.

Softbound. 8vo. VII, 406, [16] pages. 22 cm. First English edition. Translation of Degalim me-`al ha-Geto. Publishers description: In this groundbreaking work, Israels former Minister of Defense, Professor Moshe Arens, recounts a true tale of daring, courage, and sacrifice that should be accurately told out of respect for and in homage to the fighters who rose against the German attempt to liquidate the Warsaw ghetto, and made a last-ditch fight for the honor of the Jewish people. The generally accepted account of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising is incomplete. The truth begins with the existence of not one, but two resistance organizations in the ghetto. Two young men, Mordechai Anielewicz of the Jewish Fighting Organization (ZOB) , and Pawel Frenkel of the Jewish Military Organization (ZZW) , rose to lead separate resistance organizations in the ghetto, which did not unite despite the desperate battle they were facing. Included is the complete text of The Stroop Report translated into English. Subjects: World War, 1939-1945 - Jewish resistance - Poland - Warsaw. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) - Poland - Warsaw. Jews - Poland - Warsaw - History - 20th century. Warsaw (Poland) - History - Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, 1943. Near fine condition. (HOLO2-99-12)
Original pictorial wrappers. 4to. 56 pages. 30 cm. First Edition. Periodical title translates as, Flying Pages.

Subtitle to cover cartoon translates as, The big, free America knows for whom it is fighting. Like all media in the Third Reich, Fliegende Blätter was subject to the censorship and demands of Goebbels Ministry of Propaganda, but it maintained its Bourgeois readership through a farcical presentation of Antisemitic subject matter. "Fliegende Blätter", often described as a humourous-satirical weekly, was published from 1844 to 1944 by Braun & Schneider. The individual issues appeared weekly. Throughout its history the magazine had many renowned contributors, including Wilhelm Busch, Gustav Adolf Closs, Hans Kaufmann, Adolf Oberländer, Franz Graf von Pocci, Moritz von Schwind and Carl Spitzweg and is often noted for its typographic and artistic quality.

Original printed wrappers. 4to. 11 pages. 30cm. In German. Compact tabloid format internally, with broadsheet printed covers. Title translates as The Curse and Inescapable Destiny of the Jews. Written by Kurt Reiss, under the pseudonym Abraham Cohen. This Antisemitic, millenarian polemic situates itself alongside the numerous Antisemitic conspiracy theories clinging to the fringes of early Nazi propaganda, a kind of millenialist Nazi-Zionism that calls for the Jews to be returned to Palestine to bring about the second coming of Jesus. In this piece, Reiss celebrates Hitler as the latest confirmation that the Jews are the chosen people, and sees Hitler as a guide and shepherd that will prevent the assimilation of the Jewish people and help bring them to Palestine to facilitate the final salvation. Kurt [Reiss] left school at the age of 15 and developed an interest in religion. He believed that the Jews should recognize Jesus Christ as their Messiah. He also attempted to secure patents for mechanical inventions. Kurt convinced the family to emigrate to Canada. According to a family member Kurt suffered from mental illness. He was unable to work and spent his days writing notes about his daily activities and his religious ideas. His sister Lola always took care of him.

First edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 11 pages; 20cm. Holocaust-era speech by Judge Morris Rothenberg, President of the Jewish National Fund of America, about the Jewish immigration achievements since 1882 in Palestine as well as the goals for future purchase and cultivation of land. Sir John Hope-Simpson, Vice-President of the British Refugee Settlement Committee and author of the Hope Simpson Report, had declared in the 1930s that all the all the available land was then already under cultivation and the rest comprised irreclaimable soil. The desperate needs of the Jewish people, the determination and ingenuity of the Yishuv have exploded this expert assertion. The Jewish population of Eretz Israel has more than doubled since that erroneous opinion was uttered and served as the basis for the White Paper of 1931, now lying in the waste basket of history.

8vo. 56 pages. First edition. Reprinted from American Jewish year book, vol. 63, 1962. SUBJECT (S) : Jews Europe history. Baron (1895-1989) was a professor at Columbia University, and was appointed the Nathan L. Miller Professor of Jewish History, Literature, and Institutions there in 1929, making Columbia the first university to provide a true academic milieu for Jewish studies. During his incumbency, Baron denounced the "lachrymose conception of Jewish history" as a story of individuals and persecutions, flawed by undue emphasis on events, texts and idealism. He used universal categories and scholarly research to place Jewish history in a larger comparative context, while placing equal emphasis on the vibrancy of Jewish religious culture.
