The Death of the Shtetl

A superior copy inside and out, being a sterling condition hardcover copy, with unbruised tips, tight binding, and clean internals, showing only very slight shelf- and edge-wear; not ex-library, with neither underlining nor highlighting anywhere.

Bright and shiny dust jacket, paper-backed, illustrated, showing only very minor wear, protected by a plastic coat, dust jacket not being price-clipped. Gift-quality condition inside and out. According to the publisher's blurb, "In this book, Yehuda Bauer, an internationally acclaimed Holocaust historian, describes the destruction of small Jewish townships, the shtetls, in what was the eastern part of Poland by the Nazis in 1941-1942. Bauer brings together all available documents, testimonies, and scholarship, including previously unpublished material from the Yad Vashem archives, pertaining to nine representative shtetls. In line with his belief that "history is the story of real people in real situations," Bauer tells moving stories about what happened to individual Jews and their communities. Over a million people, approximately a quarter of all victims of the Holocaust, came from the shtetls. Bauer writes of the relations between Jews and non-Jews (including the actions of rescuers); he also describes attempts to create underground resistance groups, efforts to escape to the forests, and Jewish participation in the Soviet partisan movement. Bauer's book is a definitive examination of the demise of the shtetls, a topic of vast importance to the history of the Holocaust." Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. viii [map endpapers] + 208 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . .

He was the only American to fit snugly into its mischievous midst, and nimbly did he become one of its most enterprising participants. Within a few months of his arrival, a one man show of his work was mounted at the Librairie Six gallery-bookshop, owned by a brother Dadaist, Philippe Soupault, and his wife Mick. The exhibition evoked great enthusiasm within the Dada ranks, but not a single work was sold."Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . . As New/As New,
