Most books on Nazi Germany focus on the war years. Much less is
known about the preceding years although these give important clues
with regard to the events after November 1938, which culminated in
the Holocaust. This book is based on eyewitness accounts chosen
from the many memoirs that Harvard University received in 1940
after it had sent out a call to German-Jewish refugees to describe
their experiences before and after 1933. These invaluable documents
became part of the Harvard archives where the editors of this
volume discovered them fifty years later. These memoirs, written so
soon after the emigration when the impressions were still vivid,
movingly describe the gradual deterioration of the situation of the
Jews, the daily humiliations and insults they had to suffer, and
their desperate attempts to leave Germany. An informative
introduction puts these accounts into a wider framework.
