Description
This book is a social and cultural history of one Jewish family, prior to and during the Holocaust. This scholarly work was written by the son of a survivor who researched the lives of his relatives through extensive use of archival and secondary sources as well as personal testimony. The result is a deeply moving portrayal of how family members lived and died in Poland and France. The author carefully reconstructs the life and death struggles of his family within the larger historical contexts that shaped how they lived and died.
