pictorial history of the Holocaust

This extraordinary compilation of photos, maps, and explanatory texts is one of the most unique and informative reference works on the Holocaust. The rare photographs - some never before released - and concise history combine to be the most effective and disturbing accounts of this period in print today. After outlining the antisemitism and racist sentiment present in Eastern Europe since the Middle Ages, the editor discusses the foundations for Hitler's beliefs and recounts the escalation of his ideas as they became a horrible reality.
The pages of this volume contain over 400 photographs, taken at a time when such photography was against the law in Germany and its occupied territories
