A history of the French ORT, and the life and work of Leon Bramson (Leonty; 18691941) , communal worker and writer. Born in Kovno, Bramson graduated in law from Moscow University, then settled in St. Petersburg, where he practiced, and was active in the Society for the Promotion of Culture Among the Jews . He was also director of the central committee of the Jewish Colonization Association from 1899 to 1906. Under his direction a statistical study was carried out on the economic situation of the Jews in Russia (published in Russian in 1904 and in French in 19068) . He was one of the compilers of the Sistematicheskiy ukazatel literatury o yevreyakh na russkom yazyke ('Systematic Guide to Russian Literature About Jews, ' 1892) , and contributed many articles to Voskhod and other periodicals on problems of Jewish education, emigration, and colonization. Active in Jewish political life, Bramson was one of the founders of the 'Jewish Democratic Group. ' In 1906 he was elected to the First Duma as a deputy for Kovno province, joining the Labor faction ('Trudoviki') . During World War I, the Revolution, and the Civil War, Bramson was an organizer of the Central Committee for the Relief of Jewish War Sufferers (YEKOPO) . When he left Russia in 1920, he continued to work in Western Europe on behalf of ORT (with which he had been associated in Russia from 1909) , serving as its president from 1923 until his death. (EJ 2008) . The author, Dr David Lvovitch (1882-1950) studied law and economics in St Petersburg and later studied engineering in Munich. An early Zionist from a wealthy family, he visited the USA, spending the First World War years there. He returned to Russia and was elected to the short-lived 1918 Constituent Assembly. An industrialist, he was interested in ORT's agricultural and co-operative projects. Elected as a founder member of the World ORT Union Council in 1921, he was central in developing ORT into a world organisation. Lvovitch travelled abroad with Leon Bramson to find financial support for needy Russian Jews after the First World War. He worked successfully in the USA, cultivating support among the Russian emigre community. On Bramson's death Lvovitch and Aaron Syngalowski, as co-chairmen of the ORT Executive, shared the running of World ORT throughout the Second World War and after. Lvovitch, based in Paris, was in charge of ORT's remarkable programmes assisting and retraining displaced persons in Europe. When he died, the ORT Lvovitch School in Netanya was named in his memory.

1st Yiddish edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers. 12mo. 95 pages, 14 cm. In Yiddish with some Russian. Title translates to Lublin Extermination-Camp Majdanek. Soviet war correspondent and poet Konstantin Simonovs booklet on the atrocities of the Majdanek camp, published simultaneously in several languages, was only the second monograph published on the atrocities at Majdanek. Simonov (1915-1979) was a highly decorated poet, novelist, playright, and war correspondent whose works were widely known (Wikipedia, 2018) . A Polish-Soviet Special Criminal Court was established in Lublin in August 1944 in order to investigate the Nazi crimes in the Majdanek extermination camp, with Simonov covering the proceedings as the basis for this work. The Majdanek concentration camp was established on Heinrich Himmler's order and operated from October 1, 1941 until it was liberated by the Soviet Army on July 22, 1944. It is known to be the best preserved Nazi concentration camp of the Holocaust, as the Germans did not have enough time to destroy the evidences of their crimes. The Commission for investigating the German crimes was established in August 1944 and soon they published this booklet in several languages. Despite of the importance of this statement it must be mentioned that the Commission made many erroneous assumptions regarding the duration of the camp or number of people killed at Majdanek, probably because they were motivated rather by political and propaganda agenda than by a search for historical facts. The total number of the victims is still controversial, in this report 1.5 million victims of different nationalities were counted, however according to the latest researches there were 79, 000 victims, 59, 000 of whom were Jews.

Early pulication (1945) from just after liberation, documenting the Nazi Massacre at Lidice, Czechslovakia. On June 10, 1942 the village of Licide was totally destroyed by the members of the Ordnungspolizei and the SD (Sicherheitsdienst) in revenge for the assassination of Deputy Reich Protector of Bohemia and Moravia, Reinhard Heydrich on May 27, 1942. Soon after Heydrich's funeral, Hitler ordered that any town found to have hidden his killers was to be burned to the ground and leveled to the ground. All men over 16 were to be shot, women and children are to be sent to concentration camps with children who were suitable for "Germanisation" to be placed in SS families. The Nazis chose Lidice because its residents were suspected of harboring partisans and were falsely associated by aiding team members of "Operation Anthropoid" (code name for the assassination plot) . On June 10, 1942 Hitler's orders were carried out and Lidice and its citizens were obliterated.
