1999Paperback. 8vo. XXII, 214 pages. 22 cm. Second edition. In Nazi-occupied France, 4-year-old Ruth Kapp learns that it is dangerous to use her own name. As a relative of German Jews, she and her family are targeted for deportation. In the narrative, Ruth recounts her experiences as a young Jewish girl in war-torn France, and the courage of ordinary people from the French countryside who risked their lives to protect her and her family as they flee from one home to another, one step ahead of the Gestapo. Separated from her parents, Ruth spends the rest of the war in a Catholic convent and told to forget her parents and religion. A paper bag containing a few pieces of candy smuggled to her is her only clue that her parents are still alive. Years after the war, she returns to France and once again journeys into the countryside to find out what happened to the families that looked after her. (Back cover description) .

1997Publishers cloth. 8vo. VIII, 259 pages. 24 cm. First edition. The fiftieth anniversary of World War II and the Holocaust inspired new memoirs, documentaries and historical studies, but few examined the hundreds of personal stories of Italians who tried to rescue Jewish people from certain death, and the important role played in those efforts by the Catholic Church, especially by Pope Pius XII and many parishes and religious orders of men and women. Mainly using untapped oral histories of Italian Jews and Catholics, this book shows that Catholics in Italy who saved Jews firmly believed they were doing so in consonance with the Pope's wishes. Readers will get to know these courageous individuals through their inspiring memoirs. Yours is a Precious Witness strives to draw a more personal portrait of Pius XII. He spoke loudly - not in words, which would have resulted in Nazi retaliations, but in actions that directly saved thousands of Jews. Convents, monasteries and papal buildings in Italy became havens for refugees. (Publishers description) Subjects: Jews - Persecutions - Italy. Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) - Italy.

1979Paper wrappers, 10 pages. In Spanish. Title in English: " Z. Z. W. (Zydowsky Zwiazek Wojksowy) In the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising" Z. Z. W. Was a Jewish Military Union, founded by David Wdowinski (1895-1970) . "The ZZW never integrated into the main underground fighting organization in Warsaw, the Zydowska Organizacja Bojowa (The Jewish Fighting Organization) , but the two groups did coordinate their activities to a certain extent during the spring of 1943. The ZZW did not participate in the first armed clash in the ghetto, in January 1943. During the April uprising its fighters fought fiercely near Muranowska Square, in one of the major battles of the rebellion. Other ZZW men fought in the Brushmakers' area of the ghetto, and still others in the area where supplies were kept. Wdowinski was captured by the Germans during the uprising and was sent to various concentration camps but survived. He settled in the United States after the war and in 1961 was a witness at the Eichmann Trial. He published his memoirs, And We Are Not Saved (1963) . " (Rozette, EJ, 2007) Very good condition.
