Jewish Responses to Persecution: 1941-1942 is the third volume in a
five-volume set published in association with the United States
Holocaust Memorial Museum that offers a new perspective on
Holocaust history. Incorporating historical documents and
accessible narrative, this volume sheds light on the personal and
public lives of Jews during a period when Hitler's triumph in
Europe seemed assured, and the mass murder of millions had begun in
earnest. The primary source material presented here, including
letters, diary entries, photographs, transcripts of speeches,
newspaper articles, and official memos and reports, makes this
volume an essential research tool and curriculum companion.
With its unique combination of primary sources and historical
narrative, Jewish Responses to Persecution: 1944-1946, provides an
important new perspective on Holocaust history. Covering the final
year of Nazi destruction and the immediate postwar years, it traces
the increasingly urgent Jewish struggle for survival, which
included armed resistance and organized escape attempts. Shedding
light on the personal and public lives of Jews, this book provides
compelling insights into a wide range of Jewish experiences during
the Holocaust. Jewish individuals and communities suffered through
this devastating period and reflected on the Holocaust differently,
depending on their nationality, personal and communal histories and
traditions, political beliefs, economic situations, and other life
history. The rich spectrum of primary source material collected,
including letters, diary entries, photographs, transcripts of
speeches and radio addresses, newspaper articles, drawings, and
official government and institutional memos and reports, makes this
volume an essential research tool and curriculum companion.
