THE TREATMENT OF THE HOLOCAUST IN HUNGARY AND ROMANIA DURING THE POST-COMMUNIST ERA
Original Cloth. 8vo. VII, 215 pages. 24 cm. First edition. Edited by Randolph L. Braham. This book describes the attempt in post-Communist Hungary to distort and denigrate the Holocaust, often by respectable public figures such as intellectuals, members of parliment and influential government and party figures. Such figures appear resolved to explain and justify Hungary's linkage to Nazi Germany, rehabilitate the Horthy regime, and absolve the country of any responsibility for the destruction of approximately 550, 000 of its citizens of the Jewish faith or heritage. - Publishers description.

Ko¨t. Maros-Torda va´rmeyge-Zemple´n va´rmegye - 3. Ko¨t. Fu¨ggele´k. The illustrated three-volume Geographical Encyclopedia of the Holocaust in Hungary is a magisterial resource, thorough and exhaustive, chronicling the wartime fate of the Jewish communities in that country where virulent antisemitism is anything but dead, even today. With scores of detailed maps and hundreds of photographs, this reference work is organized alphabetically by county, each prefaced with a map and a contextual history describing its Jewish population up to and into 1944. Entries track the demographic, cultural, and religious changes in even the smallest communities where Jews lived before their marginalization, dispossession, ghettoization, and, finally, deportation to labor and death camps. The encyclope¬dia endows scholars and lay researchers with both panoramic and microscopic views of the virtually last-minute destruction of most of the Jews of Hungary, until then the last sizable surviving Jewish community in occupied Europe. - USHMM.
