196843041London: The White Eagle Press Limited 1968. First edition. Original paper wrappers Small 8vo 88 pages. 21 cm. In English.<br> On the condition of Jews in Poland both historical and contemporary. Includes discussion of the Holocaust defense of Poland from charges of anti-Semitism and resistance organizations.<br> “On the eve of the Second World War Poland was home to over three million Jews making it the second-largest community in the world. Warsaw the capital had a population of over 300000 Jews more than 30% of the population of the city—and a larger Jewish community than in most European countries. Around 85% of Polish Jewry was annihilated during the Holocaust. After the war many survivors refused to return to or remain in Poland which was marked by civil war and anti-Semitic violence. Since the end of Communism the small Jewish community in Poland has been able to reassert its identity and begin the process of rebuilding. Most of the country's Jews live in Warsaw but smaller communities also exist in Kraków Wroclaw Lodz Katowice Szczecin Gdansk and several other cities.†World Jewish Congress<br> SUBJECTS: Jews -- Poland.

1st edition. Original paper wrappers, 8vo, 19 pages. Interesting period analysis, in under 20 pages, of the new German Mythology which is being taught to Germanys children. The author includes no fewer than 8 references to Antisemitic references to the Jews or Jewish conspiracy against Germany, as well as the other standard Nazi tropes. "Germany is now making a legend - the legend of the Third Empire. She is giving it saints and heroes and martyrs. Unlike other legends, this legend is new and burning and contemporary. It fans national pride (suffering from a sense of defeat) with ardent fires, and ... It tends to encourage dislike of other nations. The new Germany, based on racial nationalism, is building a story of the great Renaissance of national life since the collapse of 1918; and it is building it on the foundations of exaltation of German blood and depreciation of what is non-German. Being thorough, as well as passionate, the Germans are making the story they have built not only a matter of song and poem, but also a matter of text-books and educational method. The result is school history-books like that which is analysed in the following pages" (from the Foreword) . Friends of Europe publications, no. 11. SUBJECT(S) : History -- Study and teaching (Elementary) -- Germany. National socialism -- Study and teaching. Questions and answers. -- Juvenile literature. Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei. Spine repaired, quality glossy paper has held up well and is solid. Good Condition thus. (Holo2-139-18) xx

8vo; 1st edition. Original illustrated red boards, 8vo, 342 pages. In Yiddish. Title translates as, "The destruction of Vilna." Kaczerginski (19081954) was a Yiddish writer and cultural activist. Born in Vilna to a poor family and educated at that citys Talmud Torah, Shmerke (Pol., Szmerke) Kaczerginski lost both his parents during World War I. As a youth, he was involved with outlawed Communist groups and was arrested several times, serving a lengthy prison term. In the 1930s, two of his revolutionary poems became popular in Poland. He wrote short stories with a radical bent and was a correspondent and reporter for literary publications, including the semilegal leftist press in Poland and the New York Communist daily Morgn-frayhayt. Kaczerginski played a key role in shaping the writers and artists group Yung-Vilne; he organized its evening events and was the de facto publisher of its three miscellanies between 1934 and 1936. During the period of Soviet control over Lithuania in 19401941, he was even more active in the field of Yiddish culture, but at the same time experienced his first disappointments with the attitude of the Soviet regime toward Jewish culture. During the first period of Nazi occupation, Kaczerginski wandered through villages and towns posing as a deaf mute; after many difficulties, he ended up in the Vilna ghetto. Kaczerginski was very involved in the ghettos cultural activities. As a leader of its youth club, he wrote its Yugnt-himen (Youth Hymn), a song that immediately became popular. In 1943, he wrote the song Shtiler, shtiler in memory of the mass murders committed at Ponar. Set to music that Aleksander Volkoviski (later known as Aleksander Tamir) had submitted to a contest organized by the ghetto, the song was first heard at an evening performance there and over the years became one of the best-known songs of the Holocaust. With Avrom Sutzkever and others, Kaczerginski became part of a group of forced laborers whom the Germans designated to sort Jewish cultural treasures at YIVO and other locations. Known as the Papir-brigade (Paper Brigade), the groups members risked their lives to hide the most significant items, smuggling them back into the ghetto or entrusting them to non-Jewish acquaintances. Kaczerginski was a member of the Fareynikte Partizaner Organizatsye (United Partisans Organization; FPO), and, since YIVOs building was located outside the ghetto walls, he took part in smuggling weapons into the ghetto. In September 1943, Kaczerginski, along with Avrom and Freydke Sutzkever and other members of the FPO, escaped from the Vilna ghetto as part of an organized group of fighters just before its liquidation. They joined a Soviet partisan unit in the Naroch Forests, where Kaczerginski fought as a partisan until liberation in July 1944. Kaczerginskis books describe the destruction of Vilna, the partisan struggle, and his own experiences during the Holocaust period: Khurbn Vilne (The Destruction of Vilna; 1947), Partizaner geyen (Partisans on the Move; 1947), and Ikh bin geven a partizan (I Was a Partisan; 1952) (YIVO, 2010). Ex-library, spine sunned, otherwise very Good Condition. (HOLO2-89-3A)
