Softcover, 8vo, 23 cm. , 201 pages. 2nd edition. Alas, the reviewer on Amazon writes that this is a Christian book in that its thesis is that God was punishing the Jews for not accepting Jesus as the Messiah. Aside from that, it is horribly written and is full of misspellings, chiefly Elie Weisel. I don't know why Mr. Schapiro chose me to review his book, but from where I sit, it is not worth the paper it is printed on. Corners bumped, otherwise good condition. (Holo2-42-8)
Original Cloth. 8vo. X, 338 pages. 24 cm. First edition. Edited by Randolph L. Braham. This volume is the twenty-sixth in the Holocaust Studies Series sponsored by the Rosenthal Institute for Holocaust Studies at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. It contains ten seminal studies the catastrophe that befell the Jews of Europe during the Nazi era. It also reprints two historically crucial documents relating to the so-called Hungarian Gold Train, a freight train that, in 1944, carried stolen or confiscated Jewish valuables from Hungary. Essays recount the unfolding of the Holocaust in Hungary and the history of the Jews in Europe. They detail the elimination of Jews in Greece, particularly from the large Sephardic community of Salonika, and describe the rescue of Jews in Albania. Nonhistorical essays concern autobiographical narratives in which survivors and their descendents reflect on the return to former shtetls in East Central Europe and the attitudes of victims toward the perpetrators of Holocaust crimes. Taken altogether, this volume formulates a more complete understanding of the Holocaust in Eastern Europe. Contents: The Christian churches of Hungary and the holocaust: an overview / Randolph L. Braham; The Shoah in Salonika / Steven B. Bowman; The Jews of Albania: a story of survival / Sami Repishti; The Holocaust in Hungary: a lecture in honor of Randolph Braham / Istavan Deak; Rescue operations in northern Transylvania / Randolph L.

1st edition, original paper wrappers. 8vo, 8 pages. A sermon preached on New Years Morning, Saturday, September 8th, 1945 before Congregation Keneseth Israel of Allentown, Pennsylvania by Rabbi Braunstein, Ph. D. This sermon was preached before the release on Sept. 30, 1945 of Earl G. Harrisons Report to President Truman on the conditions of refugees and displaced persons in western Europe, and of the subsequent interchange of correspondence between the President and General Eisenhower. All of these strengthen and confirm the point-of-view expressed in this sermon. (page 8) Braunstein doesnt think that the Jews who fled should have to go back to their former homes. He says, The Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees, of which our Government is a member, recently declared that the Jewish D. P. will be given the opportunity to learn more about conditions in his country and give the governments more time to satisfy their nationals that they can return to their countries with the prospect of leading a healthy, normal life before reaching the conclusion that the person must be treated permanently as non-repatriable. These are elegant words to conceal the real decision of the Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees. That decision is this: Let the Jews cool off their heels in the German concentration camps until they realize they must return to their former homes. The simplest truth is that these Jews are afraid to return to their former homes. They who have cheated death for so many years at the hands of the Germans do not want to die at the hands of the Germans, do not want to die at the hands of their former co-citizens. And if their experiences in Poland and in Slovakia and elsewhere are any indication of how the wind is blowing, they have a right to fear. They have a right to refuse to return to their former homes. I have been wondering whether the late President Roosevelts promise of a world in which there would be freedom from fear will ever have meaning to the displaced Jews of Europe.

No date (1945-1949) . First edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers with silhouette of man waving Israeli flag. 12 mo. 6 panels; 14 x 9 cm. Early Jews for Jesus type brochure produced in the aftermath of the Holocaust. The greatest tragedy of history is the impoverishment of the Jewish soul which has come through the rejection of the Messiah-Jesus. The nationalism wherein we took refuge has dealt us a fatal blow. It has cut off the jugular vein of our spirits. When faced with the responsibility of the Jesus-question we have perpetuated the mistakes of our forefathers. The yielding to the tender love of Jesus has become associated with becoming a Gentile and a traitor. We do not realize that in accepting Him we drink at the fountain of living waters whereof our prophet Jeremiah spoke. SUBJECT(S) : WWII, Holocaust, Messianic Judaism.
