This edition was reprinted from the Warsaw, 1874 edition printed by Yitzhak Goldman. Bergen-Belsen was the largest displaced persons (DP) camp in Germany and was the center of Jewish DP political and social activity in the British zone of occupation. The camp was established in July 1945 near the concentration camp after the British burned the camp barracks during liberation. In 1946, the DP camp housed over 11, 000 Jews. Survivors of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp organized political, cultural, and religious activities just weeks after liberation. The DPs of Bergen-Belsen also created and maintained a lively cultural life and published Unzer Shtimme (Our Voice) , the main Jewish newspaper of the British zone. By the middle of 1950, the camp was nearly empty; the last DPs left in August 1951. The majority of Bergen-Belsen's DPs emigrated to Israel. Many others went to the United States and Canada (USHMM, 2018) . SUBJECTS: Displaced Persons. OCLC lists 5 copies online, three of which are in Israel and two of which are in Germany.

(1945) . Original Illustrated Paper Wrappers, Small 8vo, 216 pages. Eredeti borítóval. Includes 9 powerful original linocut illustrations, and cover design, by Shagra Weil. Also includes a bit of music.Title translates as "The Yellow Book. Data on the War Losses of Hungarian Jewry. 1941-1945." One of the earliest book about the Hungarian Holocaust. Published by Hechaluc (Hehalutz), the Zionist resistant movement, whose legendary headquarters was located at the Üvegház (Glasshouse) in Budapest, a former glass-store. During the Holocaust about 3000 people found shelter there and it was the center for producing fake identification documents to save Hungarian Jews from persecution. Shraga Weil (Ferenc Ferdinánd; 1918-2009) was a Hungarian born Israeli painter. He studied at the Academy of Art in Prague and École des Beaux Arts in Paris. During WWII he was active in the Zionist underground movement in Budapest, working in the workshop for forging documents. After the war he sailed for Palestine on an illegal immigrant ship and became a member of Kibbutz Ha'ogen where he lived until his death. In 1959 Weil was awarded the Dizengoff Prize for painting. He created the doors of the main entrance to the Knesset building and the President's residence in Jerusalem. Weil painted the wooden panels in the Israeli Hall at the Kennedy Center. Sándor Groszmann (Alexander Grossmann, Ben Erec; 1909-2003) was a journalist and publisher, one of the main activists of the Hungarian Zionist movement and co-founder of "Hashomer Hatzair" in Hungary. He was one of the leaders at the "Glasshouse". "When the argument arose about whether to absorb more Jews into the 'Glass House' as they might endanger the lives of those already living there, he said: 'For the sake of one hundred thousand Jews it is worth to endanger our own lives'". (Gur, D.; 2007). After the liberation he was the secretary of JDC (American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee) in Budapest and member of the board of the Hungarian Zionist Association and of the "Eretz-Israel" office. In 1949 he left Hungary and after living in Austria and Israel he settled down in Switzerland where he started to publish books and the periodical "Jöv?" (Future).

Softbound. 4to. IV, 34, 87, 57, 41 (total of 225) pages. 28 cm. First edition. An extensive collection of events and jewish life across the world in the year 1953. Contents include: The Jewish Communities of the World and Their Main Features (Aden-Yugoslavia) ; Main Events in Jewish Life (NThe Neo-Fascist Movement and the Jews; The Treatmnent of War Criminals; Organizational Trends in the New Jewish Communities; Brief Review of Cultural Activities; The Soviet Union; The Peoples Democracies; The Countries of the Arab League; French North Africa; Germany West and East) ; Activities of the World Jewish Congress; Chronicle of Jewish Life in 1953. The Institute of Jewish Affairs was established in New York under the auspices of the American Jewish Congress and the World Jewish Congress on 1 February 1941, based on proposals made by Dr Jacob Robinson to the American Jewish Congress in 1939 and 1940. Its aims were to conduct a thorough investigation of Jewish life over the preceding 25 years, to establish the facts of the position of the Jews during World War II, to determine their causes and to suggest how Jewish rights might be claimed in a post-war settlement. In pursuing this last, it was to focus on the rehabilitation of the Jewish population in Europe where it was possible and they were willing to remain in their homes. Where that was impossible and on the question of emigration, it was to take as its premise that `the National Home in Palestine is the primary solution of the problem of Jewish migration'. Its research initially focused on political science and law, economics, migration and colonisation, and post-war reconstruction, encompassing a watching brief on events affecting the Jews in all countries. As well as its programme of research, the Institute was established to collect documentation and to index holdings of other institutions, particularly on aliens, anti-Jewish measures, recent aspects of anti-Semitism, autonomy, colonisation, exchanges of population, migrations, minorities, nationalism, nationality and citizenship, plebiscites, race hatred, refugees, relief, self-determination, small states, the territorial questions of World War I, war and peace aims, and war and post-war changes. The Institute moved to London in 1965, maintaining its programme of research and publications into contemporary issues affecting Jewish communities across the world.
