A propos de cet article

Fine unread condition color illustrated glossy softcover wraps. Includes Author Dedication; From the Director; Introduction; The Nazi Assault; The Holocaust; The Last Chapter; Afterword; Biographical Note; About the Museum; Acknowledgments; and Index. Profusely illustrated with both black-and-white photographs, color photographs. "In April 1993, on the fiftieth anniversary of the Warsaw ghetto uprising, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum opened its doors in Washington, D.C., to honor and immortalize the 6 million Jews and the millions of other victims murdered by the Nazis during World War II. Drawing on the museum's artifacts and its extensive eyewitness testimony collection (the second largest in the world), and including over 200 photographic images from the museum's archives, The World Must Know journeys back in time to a world where Jewish culture thrived in central Europe, and proceeds to the moment when the most unspeakable events in history occurred. The World Must Know documents the human stories of the Holocaust, from the families who received sudden orders to report to the train stations for "resettlement in the East" to the Nazi officials who determined who would live and who would die and to ordinary citizens, like those in the village of Le Chambon-sur-Lignon, France, who risked their own lives by hiding Jewish refugees in their homes. The powerful and provocative images in The World Must Know tell of hope and death - the grim reality of the ghettos and concentration camps, the coolly efficient mobile killing units, as well as the brave and heart-wrenching stories of resistance and rescue. More than a catalogue of the museum's exhibit, the World Must Know is a work of superb scholarship that fulfills a commandment from those who perished, which lives in the memories of those who survived, the challenge and responsibility of all survivors everywhere: Remember. Do not let the world forget." - from the rear outer cover. "The World Must Know by Michael Berenbaum is a skillfully organized and clearly told account of the German Holocaust that consumed, with unparalleled malevolence, 6 million Jews and millions of innocent others - Protestants, Catholics, Poles, Russians, Gypsies, the handicapped, and so many others, adults and children. This important book, a vital guide through the unique corridors of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., merits the widest of audiences." - Chaim Potok, author.…

Description de la boutique

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
