The graphic history of the Nazi attempt to destroy the Jews of
Europe during the Second World War is illustrated in this series of
363 detailed maps. The maps, and the text and photographs that
accompany them, powerfully depict the fate of the Jews between 1933
and 1945, while also setting the chronological story in the wider
context of the war itself. The maps include: • Historical
background – from the effects of anti-Jewish violence between
1880 and 1933 to the geography of the existing Jewish communities
when the Nazi Party came to power • The beginning of the violence
– from the destruction of the synagogues in November 1938 to
Jewish migrations and deportations, the ghettos, and the
establishment of the concentration camps and death camps throughout
German-dominated Europe • The spread of Nazi rule – the fate of
the Jews throughout Europe including Germany, Austria, Poland,
Greece, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Russia, Denmark, Norway, France,
Holland, Belgium, Italy, and the Baltic States • Jewish revolts
and resistance – acts of armed resistance, fighting in the
forests, individual acts of courage • Jews in hiding – escape
routes, Christians who helped Jews • The death marches – the
advance of the Allies and the liberation of the camps, the
survivors, and the final death toll. This new edition now includes
an additional 30 of Martin Gilbert’s maps, with many additional
camp and ghetto maps, further illustrating the layout and
organization of some of the most significant towns and cities
affected by the Holocaust, especially useful to those visiting the
sites.
