A propos de cet article

1st edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo, 43 pages. "No single phenomenon of the postwar period, except the struggle for the Jewish Homeland and its miraculous survival in the face of Arab intransigence, has proven at once so tragic and so inspiring as that of the more than two hundred thousand Jews from various countries who at one time or another sojourned in camps and towns in Germany, Austria, and Italy while waiting for new homes and a new life in freedom. For years the two letters DP figured prominently on the pages of Jewish publications, were a daily topic of conversation, the concern of Jewish philanthropy, and the preoccupation of all major Jewish organizations the world over. It is for these reasons that the Institute of Jewish Affairs decided to relate the story of the Jewish DPs in the present study…. The purpose of this brochure is to summarize the unique experience in Jewish history which the DPs represented and to give a brief account of what their problem was like and how and by what means it was solved. The full story of the Jewish DPs, of course, has yet to be written." (from foreword). SUBJECT(S): Jewish refugees. Jews -- Europe. World War, 1939-1945. OCLC: 21664940. Very Good Condition.
