With its unique combination of primary sources and historical narrative; Jewish Responses to Persecution: 1944–1946; provides an important new perspective on Holocaust history. Covering the final year of Nazi destruction and the immediate postwar years; it traces the increasingly urgent Jewish struggle for survival; which included armed resistance and organized escape attempts. Shedding light on the personal and public lives of Jews; this book provides compelling insights into a wide range of Jewish experiences during the Holocaust. Jewish individuals and communities suffered through this devastating period and reflected on the Holocaust differently; depending on their nationality; personal and communal histories and traditions; political beliefs; economic situations; and other life history. The rich spectrum of primary source material collected; including letters; diary entries; photographs; transcripts of speeches and radio addresses; newspaper articles; drawings; and official government and institutional memos and reports; makes this volume an essential research tool and curriculum companion.
