O Holocausto - Uma História dos Judeus da Europa na Segunda Guerra Mundial

Holocaust
Gerald Green - 1978
The Dorfs are "good" Germans, loyal to the new Nazi regime, and their son Erik, a promising lawyer, finds his ambitions realized in the SS at the side of the ruthless Reynard Heydrich. The Weiss family is Jewish, also seemingly "good" Germans, but doomed under the new regime and its determination to exterminate the Jewish population.
Fragments of Isabella: A Memoir of Auschwitz
Isabella Leitner - 1978
Her recollections make a sparse and searing book, fragments of remembered feelings and occurrences that evoke perhaps better than most works something unfathomable.
The Warsaw Diary of Adam Czerniakow: Prelude to Doom
Adam Czerniaków - 1978
But there is more to the story than the tragic death of one man among so many millions. Czerniakow was for almost three years the chairman of the Warsaw Judenrat - a Jew, devoted to his people, who served as the Nazi-sponsored mayor of the Warsaw Ghetto. His personal dealings with the German authorities bring to this daily record of events a depth of knowledge, accuracy of detail, and panorama of view that was possible to no other participant in the epic prelude to the final doom of the largest captive Jewish community in Eastern Europe. This secret journal is not only the testimony of an unbearable personal burden but the documentary of the Ghetto s terminal agony. It is the most important diary to emerge from the Holocaust."A tale of Kafkaesque horror." - Houston Chronicle.
When Being Jewish Was A Crime
Rachmiel Frydland - 1978
Perhaps more importantly, this is Frydland's account of how the God of his ancestors took over and occupied his life, delivering him from death -- spiritually, then physically--and led him into a ministry of proclaiming Messiah Yeshua (Jesus). Rachmiel Frydland was a Jew who suffered persecution under the Nazis; he was a believer in the Messiah who sometimes suffered rejection by Christians during his years as a fugitive. He challenges us to consider what our response might be in similar cases of inhumanity both now and in the future.
