1st edition, original cloth, 8vo. 795 pages, illustrations throughout. In Hebrew and Yiddish. (Wednesday, 15th of Shvat 5700, December 27, 1939.) Thirty-five years have passed since that dark day when shots were fired, and the entire Jewish population left their hometown of Zgierz. On that day, confusion and terror enveloped the big and the small, the poor and the rich. Children lost their parents and parents searched for their children. The weeping and screaming could be heard on all of the streets. Driven to the old marketplace, with their packs over their shoulders, the Jews of Zgierz fled into the forests with the fear of death, that only the eyes that saw could believe. The largest group of them fled to Lodz, a smaller group went to Glowno, and only a very few set out and arrived in Warsaw. In their despair, the unfortunate souls could not imagine that all of the roads were leading to a strange ending, to death. Thus in one day did end the flourishing Jewish community of Zgierz, that numbered 5, 000 souls and was bound up with the city throughout the 200 year history with intertwined work for its growth and development. It ended for not only were our holy shrines burnt, but the despicable people even desecrated the 150 year old cemetery and covered it over with earth, so that there would not remain even a memory of Jewish life on Zgierz soil. For us, the survivors, lies the great and holy duty to observe this memorial day and perpetuate it forever. This should be a day of memory and warning for us and for our children. Just as we light the memorial candles for our martyrs, we also must not forget the curse and the eternal hate for the disgusting criminals and murderers of the Jewish people. We who remain in sorrow should find comfort in the work for those close to us, and in the work to perpetuate the memory of our martyrs our parents, our brothers and sisters, relatives and friends and the entire community of Zgierz. May their memory be blessed! (translated from book, Jewishgen 2018) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Poland -- Zgierz. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) Ethnic relations. OCLC: 40705049.

Publishers cloth. 8vo. [48] pages. 22 cm. First edition. 41 illustrations. First published by Kar-Ben, Abell's book uses a chronological organization, beginning with 'Before the Nazis . . . Some children lived in towns like this, showing ordinary settings. Later, children are seen hungry in the streets; one is shot while being held by a woman. The pictures of happier times, the naming of specific children who died, and an economy of words increase the ghastly impact. Total despair does not reign; some children survive. Young readers will feel empowered almost saved through identification by these children's strategies for rescue, hiding and escape. The book is meant to be shared with someone who can explain the images; its message is one that richly deserves a wide audience.

1st separate edition. 8vo. [1] page. Reprinted from Accrington Observer & Times. Chief Rabbi Prof. Israel Abrahams of The Great Synagogue, Cape Town, South Africa, was the Chief Rabbi of the United Council of Orthodox Hebrew Congregations (Cape Province and South West Africa ) and also Northern Rhodesia, from 1937 to 1968, after which he and his wife made Aliyah to Israel. He was the head of the department of Jewish Studies at The University of Cape Town. He was one of the founders of Herzlia School. In South Africa he wrote several books of sermons including Pathways in Judaism, Living Waters and The Birth of a Community - a history of Western Province Jewry from its earliest times to the end of the South African War, 1902. He translated the scholarly works of Prof Umberto Cassuto from Hebrew to English, both while in South Africa and later in Jerusalem. In Israel he went on to translate works by Prof Urbach and others, until his death after a short illness in October 1973. Chief Rabbi Prof Abrahams was born in Vilna and came to London as a small child, where he later received his Rabbinic Ordination from Jews College. He received his degrees at University of London. He came to Cape Town after serving as the Rabbi of the Great Synagogue in Manchester. (telfed.org) Abrahams was responding to an article in which some facts said by Coun. John Wilson and Mr. Barnes were inaccurate and anti-Semitic. He refutes that claims that In the post-war [ie post WW I] years Germany was over-run by Jews from Russia and Poland, and that some 90 per cent of the official posts in the country were occupied by Jews. He does not take an attacking tone, rather stating that, It is a thousand pities that Councillor Wilson and Mr. Barnes did not take the trouble to verify all their facts before giving their impressions Press publicity. British sympathy should be extended to the Jew, who is the helpless victim in Germany and the convenient scapegoat for all its tribulations, not to Hitler, the aggressor who has shown neither Christian charity, nor a sense of ordinary justice and humanity in his persecution of a community that has not only lived in Germany since earliest times, but has performed yeoman service in its countrys behalf.
