The Holocaust, the French, and the Jews
ISBN: 9780803299146 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

This book describes the ever-escalating dangers to which Jewish refugees and recent immigrants were subjected in France and Italy as the Holocaust marched forward. Susan Zuccotti uncovers a grueling yet complex history of suffering and resilience through historical documents and personal testimonies from members of nine central and eastern European Jewish families, displaced to France in the opening years of the Second World War.

She writes: We might examine... Eighty-five percent of Italy s Jews survived World War II. Nevertheless, more than six thousand Italian Jews were destroyed in the Holocaust and the l...
