Abzug, H. America Views the Holocaust. A brief documentary history, from 1933 on, Nazi Germany wanted the destruction of the Jewish Culture in Europe and the murder of all Jewish people including children. The Nazis almost succeeded.

The book is based on an exhibition. Many of the photographs in this book were donated by non-jews currently living in Poland, and jews of Polish origin from all over the world. Jewish life in Poland from the end of the last century to the Holocaust, with all its intimacies, dignity, pride and then horror, is arrayed in an exhibit of faded photographs culled from family albums, shoe boxes, and attics. At home and abroad, the photos depict assimilated, observant, modern and traditional jews, rich and poor, all creating an exuberant and forceful world now lost. Some sent in photos in the hope that a face would be recognized and that perhaps a friend had survived the roundups, the executions, the death camps. A unique photo collection of great documental, historical and artistic value. The pictures published for the first time are accompanied by fragments of authentic letters or conversations showing their 3 origin. One photograph was carried by a daughter of her mother through two selections by Dr. Mengele at Auschwitz, once she held it in her mouth, the second time she taped it with a band-aid to the bottom of her foot, she was 14 years old at the time. She later found out that her parents, sister and brother were shot to death attempting to avoid deportation to Auschwitz. Also includes never before seen photos of the Lodz Ghetto and round ups for deportation. The book is magnificent, unique, moving, and most important.
