From then on his literary creativity was piercingly shaped by lamentations over the loss of his family. Nonetheless with his oldest son Tsevi he found the strength to join the Jewish Fighting Organization and took part in the first uprising of January 1943. <br> After the ghetto was destroyed in April and May 1943 he escaped to the Aryan section of Warsaw and obtained a Honduran identity document. Nevertheless he was sent to a German detention camp for foreign subjects in Vittel France. He was imprisoned there until April 1944 and devoted most of his time to writing. <br> Two important works were produced during that period: Pinkas Vitel The Vittel Diary a Hebrew composition that uses the language of an incensed diarist and reconstructs the days of terror in Warsaw during the mass deportations; and Dos lid fun oysgehargetn yidishn folk The Poem about the Murdered Jewish People a pathos-filled Yiddish poem that laments the destruction of the Jewish people and of the poet himself who has been become bitterly angry with humankind and God. These two works are among the boldest and most lofty literary expressions to emerge from the Holocaust.…<br> All of Katzenelson’s works from his Vittel period were either buried in hiding places or were given to people he trusted; consequently they were saved and published shortly after the end of the war. <br> In the middle of April 1944 Katzenelson and his son Tsevi were sent to the Drancy transit camp and from there one month later to Auschwitz where they were murdered.

[Antopol] Ayalon, Benzion H.
ANTOPOL (ANTIPOLYE) : SEFER-YIZKOR. ANTOPOL (ANTEPOLIE) YIZKOR BOOK
1st edition, original cloth with dust jacket, 4to, 11 pages + 754, 170 columns. Illustrations throughout. In Hebrew, with an English section. This is the story of a vanished world, the shtetel of Antopol. The material for this presentation was gathered painstakingly over a long period of time by a relatively small group of dedicated people who wished to preserve its memory and heritage for the descendants of its martyred. More than a history, this story is very personal because our parents, grandparents and great-great grandparents going back many generations came from this community. This is also a place whose many sons and daughters in years past left to seek a new and free life. Many achieved success and prominence all over the world - the United States, South Africa, Argentina, and other areas of the globe. We are the fortunate descendants of these hardy forebears and pioneers. It is hard to imagine that only a few decades ago there existed a vibrant, living community called Antopol, with its men, women and children; its market place, stores, schools. Beth medroshim (Houses of Prayer) , orphanages, Gmilas Hasodim (free loan society for the needy) , newspaper stands - all so familiar and so dear to memory. This little town was typical of hundreds of similar smaller and larger communities. And, like Atlantis, or some past people recounted in a saga, it suddenly vanished in the most bloody massacre in all of history. But this presentation is for the living - to convey to us, the she'erit or last remnant of descendants, something of the heritage, spirit and, record of the life of this community which many of us know only in an abstract and detached way. The task is too great, and our resources too limited to write the whole story. This little volume, condensed and translated into English, is both a record and a personal memorial to a profoundly meaningful and warmly nostalgic past. (foreword from the English version of this book) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Belarus -- Antopal. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) . Ethnic relations. OCLC: 19155706. Dust jacket has some tearing and damp stains, cover corners are dented, some wear on bottom of spine, page edges slightly yellowed, internally very good. Good Condition overall. (YIZ-17-7A) xx

[Brzezin] Alperin, Aaron; Summer, Nahum.
BZSHEZSHIN YIZKER-BUKH.
1st edition, original cloth, 4to, xix+ 288+ (2) pages. On title page: Brzezin memorial book. Illustrations throughout. Yiddish, with English introduction. There once was a town of Jewish tailors Brzezin. From early dawn until late at night one could hear the music of the Singer sewing machines. It was the music of hard work, of intense anxiety, of a hard life, but also of noisy youth, semi-intellectuals, observant Jews, Hasidim who lived and had aspirations in the small Jewish town Brzezin. The Nazi savages extinguished this life forever, transformed it into ashes. Only a few Jews from the tailoring town Brzezin, by some miracle, remain, scattered over the entire world, individuals who were witnesses to the German cannibalism. May these words, frail in print, but inscribed not with ink but with blood, be a modest contribution to the matseve [gravestone] for my native town, Brzezin. Brzezin was one of the oldest and most popular Jewish communities in Poland. When this community was established, it carried the name Krakowek [Little Krakow]. At that time, the community extended from the Strykower highway to beyond the Jewish besoylem [cemetery] to the surrounding hills. The Polish noblewoman, Anna Lasocka, had brought the first weavers from afar into this community. Then the community developed even further and began to broaden its borders. At that time, the town already carried the name Brzezin. Jewish tailors came to Brzezin from many places, and after several generations, the town developed its own type of tailoring industry, by which it was known all over the world. A cottage industry was the main occupation here. As early as 1772, Brzezin was famous for its mass production in tailoring. Until 1914 the great Czarist Russia was flooded with the inexpensive products of Brzeziner tailors. In the years between the two world wars, the export of Brzezin industry was spread over many lands in Europe and into other parts of the world. In this, the great Jewish magaziners [owners of clothing enterprises] exporters such as Frankensztejn, Tuszynski, Sulkowicz, and others played a great role. The Jews in Brzezin did not only work, they also participated actively in the socio-political and cultural life of the town, had their representatives on the town council in town hall, and had their religious and secular educational, cultural, and social organizations. Materially, it was a life of Jewish poverty, but spiritually, socially, and culturally, it was rich.

[France] Klarsfeld, Serge
MEMORIAL TO THE JEWS DEPORTED FROM FRANCE, 1942-1944: DOCUMENTATION OF THE DEPORTATION OF THE VICTIMS OF THE FINAL SOLUTION IN FRANCE
1st English Language edition. 4to. Original wrappers, xxxix + 663 pages. Illustrations throughout. In English. The book by Serge Klarsfeld,
contains vital statistics of some 76, 000 Jews deported from France. Together with his wife Beate, the Paris-based Serge Klarsfeld has published lists of Jews deported from France and Belgium over the last decades. He was the leading Nazi hunter in France
. France was one of the more liberal nations in opening its doors to Jewish refugees from Poland, Romania, and Germany. Some 350, 000 Jews were living in France when the Germans invaded the country in June 1940. More than half of them were refugees from Germany who had arrived during the 1930s. Many were French citizens whose families had lived in France for centuries and who were fully assimilated. Others had come to France, often from Eastern Europe, to seek a better life and escape from antisemitism. Approximately 76, 000 Jews were deported from France between 1942 and 1944. Most went to Auschwitz-Birkenau, where the vast majority were exterminated on arrival. Klarsfeld's book is a most startling document. Nearly the size of the Manhattan (NYC) telephone directory, it lists nearly 76, 000 names of Jews deported to Eastern Europe or killed in France. Names are listed in alphabetical order, according to each of the 80 convoys. Family name, first name, birth date, place of birth, and nationality are recorded for every person. Klarsfeld also provides a detailed history of each convoy. (Jewishgen 2018) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Persecutions -- France. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Registers of dead -- France.

1st edition, later paper wrappers, 8vo. 808 + xx columns, illustrations throughout. In Hebrew, with an English title page and introduction. We consider it important and necessary to represent a review of our Memorial-Book to the children and friends of the Goniondz Society who do not read Yiddish or Hebrew. Let all of them get an idea about the Hometown of their parents and relatives and together with them hold dear the memory of the small Jewish community, that went to martyrdom during the black period of the bestial Nazi rule. 6, 000, 000 Jews perished during the 2nd World War in Eastern and Central Europe. Many bigger and smaller towns were immortalized in memorial books. They stand out like living symbols, spiritual monuments for the coming generations. Our beloved Goniondz has surely earned such a monument. The Jewish Goniondz was very lively and interesting. The small Jewish population was very active, established many parties and clubs and gave to the world outstanding intellectuals in many fields, both Jewish and general. Citizens of Goniondz are spread out all over the world. The majority of them live in the United States and in Israel, where they have established many societies and cooperatives in the socio-philanthropic field, giving financial and moral support to needy townspeople. The Memorial-Book portrays to a great extent the manysided life of Goniondz before its destruction. (from book) SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Poland -- Gonia? Dz. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) .

In March 1939 she was found guilty of "Preparing to commit High Treason" »Vorbereitung zum Hochverrat« as a result of her Communist activities and/or her Jewish provenance and was sentenced to four months imprisonment. She served her sentence which in the event lasted till November/December 1939 in a prison in Dresden. However on her release she was granted an emigration permit. She emigrated to Bratislava then the capital of the still notionally independent Slovak Republic Slovakia. In 1940 she reached a refugee camp in Slovakia from where she moved as an exile to Palestine. Here she survived in a British internment camp at Atlit till 1942.

[Jean] Bernard-Aldebert
Chemin de croix en 50 stations, de Compiègne à Gusen II en passant par Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Gusen I
Paris, Arthème Fayard, 1946. Édition originale. Grand album de 22 x 28 cm, 112 (2) pp. Relié demi-cuir noir à coins, dos à 5 nerfs ornés de pointillés et traits dorés, nom d'auteur et titre en doré. Plats marbrés. Couverture originale conservée. Tranchefile. Ouvrage illustré d'une cinquantaine de dessins en noir et blanc de l'auteur. Cet ouvrage est un puissant récit autobiographique illustré de l'artiste français Jean Bernard-Aldebert (connu sous le nom de Bernard-Aldebert, 1909-1974), relatant sa captivité dans cinq camps de concentration nazis différents entre 1944 et 1945. Après avoir bâti une carrière d'illustrateur, de caricaturiste et de satiriste, l'artiste voit son destin basculer tragiquement en novembre 1943. Pour avoir caricaturé Hitler sous les traits d'un chimpanzé dans le numéro du 1er août de l'hebdomadaire humoristique français *Ric et Rac*, Bernard-Aldebert est arrêté par la Gestapo. Il est ensuite transféré en janvier 1944 au camp d'internement de Royallieu-Compiègne, puis successivement à Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Gusen I et enfin Gusen II, où il demeure jusqu'à sa libération le 5 mai 1945. Le texte et les illustrations de l'auteur dévoilent les horreurs subies par les prisonniers dans ces camps : travaux forcés brutaux, famine, tortures sadiques et violences diverses. Si Bernard-Aldebert était surtout connu pour des caricatures au style léger et de charme, les images présentées ici versent dans un tout autre registre. Elles rappellent son style habituel, mais se révèlent bien plus dépouillées, sombres et austères, comme un reflet des émotions des personnages qui y apparaissent. Le texte est accompagné, presque systématiquement sur la page en regard, d'une reproduction en noir et blanc d'un dessin original de l'artiste, pour un total de 50 images. Celles-ci sont issues d'une série de croquis dessinés par Bernard-Aldebert peu après sa libération ; ils offrent, encore aujourd'hui, un témoignage visuel et émotionnel inestimable.

[Jehovah's Witnesses]
FASCISM OR FREEDOM?
1st edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers, 12mo, 64 pages. 4.75x7 inches. Cover shows a miserable prisoner flanked by ball & chains of swastika and hammer & sickle, behind whom hover Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and front and center The Pope. "Jehovah's Witnesses were subjected to intense persecution under the Nazi regime. The Nazis targeted Jehovah's Witnesses because they were unwilling to accept the authority of the state, because of their international connections, and because they were strongly opposed to both war on behalf of a temporal authority and organized government in matters of conscience. Within months of the Nazi takeover, regional governments, primarily those of Bavaria and Prussia, initiated aggressive steps against Jehovah's Witnesses, breaking up their meetings, ransacking and then occupying their local offices. By April 1, 1935, the Reich and Prussian Minister of the Interior ordered the responsible local officials to dissolve the Watchtower Society. Many actions of Jehovah's Witnesses antagonized Nazi authorities. While Witnesses contended that they were apolitical and that their actions were not anti-Nazi, their unwillingness to give the Nazi salute, to join party organizations or to let their children join the Hitler Youth, their refusal to participate in the so-called elections or plebiscites, and their unwillingness to adorn their homes with Nazi flags made them suspect. A special unit of the Gestapo compiled a registry of all persons believed to be Jehovah's Witnesses. Gestapo agents infiltrated Bible study meetings" (USHMM 2016) No copies listed in OCLC. Evenly- toned newsprint, Very Good Condition. Holocaust-related Jehovah's Witnesses material is rare, this imprint especially so. (HOLO2-134-61) xx

1st edition. Original cloth in dust jacket. 8vo. 231 pages. Illustrated. In Yiddish. SUBJECT (S) : Jews Lithuania history; Haskalah Lithuania history. SERIES: Dos Poylishe Yidntum ; ; bd. 70; Variation: Poylishe Yidntum ; ; bd. 70. Born in Warsaw, Shatzky [1893-1956] received his doctorate in 1922 for a dissertation on 19th-century Polish-Jewish history. During World War I he served as an officer in the Polish Legion. From 1913 on he wrote Polish articles and reviews on Jewish literary and historical subjects. He came to write mainly in Yiddish after 1922, the year he settled in the U. S. Where he was one of the founders of the U. S. Section of YIVO. From 1929 until his death he was librarian of the New York State Psychiatric Institute. Shatzky's range was extraordinarily wide: Spinoza, psychiatry, theater, music, folklore, literature, language, and other areas. His principal field, however, was Eastern European Jewish history, and his major work was his history of Warsaw Jewry. He was an indefatigable and often querulous reviewer of scholarly works; the quality and accuracy of his own historical scholarship has often been questioned. (Prager, EJ) Has tanned dust jacket and sewn in ribbon bookmark. Very good condition in good jacket. (YIZ-8-5)
