Faitelson’s original account was published in seven languages. This new edition presents a broad gallery of cynical and cruel Nazi murderers – wild beasts on two legs, the organizers and leaders of the mass murder of the Jews of Kovno, as well as the thousands of Jews brought to the Ninth Fort from central and western Europe. At the same time, there is a description of the “Actions” – the mass murders of men, women, children and the elderly whose only “crime” was to be born to a Jewish mother. At the heart of the story are the corpse-burners, the preparations they made to escape from hell, the escape itself and the fate of the escapees.

'I wanted to share the story through the eyes of a young boy because many of us felt like children in the presence of the late Pontiff. I also believe that my story, which explains the lessons of the Pope, would be better understood by children reading what happened during that Friday night Shabbat dinner. By children understanding the truths expressed in this book, I am confident that they may be better able to share the Pope's lessons. It is my wish that it will build bridges among all people on Earth.” -Jacques Shore, 2006 Reviews: Friday Night with the Pope is the second children's book written by Jacques J. M. Shore. His first children's book was the award winning, Menorah in the Night Sky. As an adult, Shore, who is an attorney, and his mother Lena, a Holocaust survivor, actually met with Pope John Paul II. Working from this real life event, Shore has crafted a compelling story for children about eleven-year-old Jacob and his mother Lena who were invited to have a Shabbat dinner with Pope John Paul II. Entertaining and educational, this book is well suited for new readers, and as a read aloud book. Although technically a children's book, this story will also delight adults. The text is printed in a 14-point font. This larger than normal font size will help to make it easier for new readers to decipher unfamiliar words. Friday Night with the Pope is a charming book about inter-faith relations, and it is wonderfully illustrated by Amalia Hoffman. Her illustrations are warm and inviting, offering the opportunity for younger readers to follow the story from the pictures alone. Within the body of the story presented in Friday Night with the Pope, Shore talks briefly about the steps that Pope John Paul II has taken to improve Jewish - Catholic relations, and he explains a bit about the Pope's history and his teaching about unity. He also discusses some of the aspects of the Shabbat dinner by having Jacob recite the Kiddush. This is all done without being preachy, or pushing the religious elements of the story. Rather what comes across in this story is that the Pope was a pleasant man, who sincerely wanted to encourage peace and unity among all people. For ages 5-9.

Drawing on documented events and news sources, Auschwitz-survivor Sabina Citron takes a fearless look at the roots of Christian anti-Semitism and how it creates a receptive audience for the Arab propaganda war on Israel. Reviews: The Indictment – a modern day J’Accuse – constitutes a wealth of straight-shooting education on the Arab-Israeli confl ict, anti- Semitism and Islamic terrorism, shedding light on the “writing on the wall,” highlighting Western hypocrisy and the lethality of complacency, pacifi sm, ignorance of historical precedents and the “two states solution.” Ambassador (ret.)

Reviews: In many parts of the Jewish world it is taken for granted that today we live in a “post-Zionist” era, that Jewish nationalism is (was) a “quaint” idea that may have made sense at one time - when downtrodden Jews needed a safe haven from persecution - but no longer has contemporary relevance, and that Israel is not, or at least not to be, the central focus of the Jewish world. If Alex Singer had been alive today, he would have strongly disagreed with all those points: That was not the life he lived and it certainly was not the ideal for which he died. Most readers may never have heard of Alex Singer, an American Jew by birth, an Israeli and an officer in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) by choice. Alex’s life was cut tragically short by a terrorist’s bullet while he led his platoon on a patrol in Southern Lebanon. Just how great the tragedy becomes clear when reading the selections from Alex’s writings (letters and diaries) and his drawings that are gathered by his parents and published as Alex - Building a Life. Alex was a remarkable young man. Earnest, studious, and industrious, Alex was a success at everything he did: including college at Cornell University and a yearlong stay as a transfer student at the London School of Economics. Despite his lofty academic credentials, Alex also never forgot his Jewish roots: he writes many letters about a trip to Russia and his meetings with Refuseniks. Alex also never questioned his path after college: Aliya, Army service, officer school, culminating in a posting to a platoon in the IDF’s elite Givati Brigade. Two details shine through immediately: Alex sensitivity and his Jewish heart. In training his men, for example, Alex always followed what he considered the “Jewish way”: never to dehumanize the enemy, never to stoop to the level of terrorists. In following this line of thought Alex wrote a journal entry entitled “Idea for Teaching the Difference of a Jewish Army.” His point was that the IDF should\/would never attempt to emulate the Nazis, or even the Arabs, by dehumanizing its foes. Instead, Jewish troops had to view its enemies as people. Alex noted that this is the “Jewish way” and also noted that such a policy “keeps us in control of our actions.” Rabbi Joseph Teluskin summarized the entire story when he said that Alex understood what it means to be a moral human being, a committed Jew, and a mensch.

He boldly declares that Jewish “diplomacy” failed to save millions of European Jews, and he accuses world leaders of inviting new Holocausts by denying history’s lessons and ignoring its imperatives.

Eldad was one of the three-man Central Command of Lehi (also known as the Stern Group). He escaped from the Nazis with Menachem Begin and directed the Lehi with Yitzhak Shamir and Natan Yellin-Mor. He negotiated with Labor movement leaders such as Golda Meir and with the commanders of the Hagana. His memoirs shed light on the relations between the Irgun, Lehi and Hagana as well as on the personal lives and interactions of future prime ministers and national leaders. The stories and analysis of The First Tithe have never before appeared in English. The First Tithe has gone through some five editions in the original Hebrew.

The principal business partner of Otto Frank, Victor Kugler assumed managerial control of the Franks’ Amsterdam spice-importing business when Nazi persecution forced the Frank family into hiding. It was Victor Kugler who kept the business going and obtained food rations under what was the harshest German wartime occupation in all of Western Europe. Without Victor Kugler, Anne Frank and her family would have starved to death a month after going into hiding. For this heroism, Victor Kugler himself was arrested and sent to a series of German labor camps in Holland where he survived by his wits and finally escaped a few weeks before the end of the war. Several years after the end of the war, when the Dutch spice business collapsed following the Indonesian revolution that nationalized Dutch holdings, Victor Kugler emigrated to Toronto, Canada. There, he led a quiet life where nobody knew who he was and what he had done during the war. Only twenty years later he began to reveal his story. The modern-day saga of this Righteous Gentile, who was honored as such at Israel’s Yad Vashem Holocaust Martyrs’ and Heroes’ Remembrance Authority, is told here in semi-documentary style, largely in his own words as told to Torontonian Eda Shapiro, herself of Eastern European Jewish background; and by many others who knew him, as compiled by well-known Toronto writer-journalist Rick Kardonne.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rick Kardonne and Eda Shapiro","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54336219939126,"sku":null,"price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/2092\/2422\/files\/i19547.2503.jpg?v=1785304935"},{"product_id":"to-survive-sobibor","title":"To Survive Sobibor","description":"\u003cp\u003eDov Freiberg was only twelve when he was hurled into the crushing events of the German occupation of Poland. His father was killed by German soldiers in the first days of the war, and his mother fought valiantly to keep her four children fed as the ghetto walls grew more and more constricting. Smuggled out of the Warsaw ghetto, young Dov was soon captured by the Nazis and imprisoned in the living hell of Sobibor death camp, where he witnessed the extermination of his people. One of several hundred inmates to escape during the prisoners’ revolt, he began anew his struggle for life in the unfriendly forests of occupied Poland. By the time the Soviet army liberated the region nine long months later, Freiberg found himself the lone survivor of his family. This is a story of the struggle for survival and for sanity throughout the inhuman experiences of the Holocaust and the postwar years. The author paints a phenomenally detailed picture of an individual life and of the lives of the Jews of Poland before their destruction, during the occupation and the Holocaust, and after liberation by the Soviet army.

Was Richard Wagner, the great composer, also Richard Wagner, the proto-Nazi? These and other issues are treated in a sholarly way in Richard and Adolf; Did Richard Wagner incite Adolf Hitler to commit the Holocaust? The music of composer Richard Wagner is banned in Israel, as he is regarded as a precursor of the Nazi ideology. In Richard and Adolf, Nicholson explores the anti-Semitic elements of Wagner’s polemical works and his music, and the immense influence this had on the man who was to become Germany’s Fuhrer. Reference is also made to the texts of the major operas, reckoned by many to be the greatest works of art of all time.

It is well documented that Lithuanians, before and during the Nazi occupation, actively killed Jews on their own initiative. However, what is uncovered here is that under Nazi rule Lithuanian officials and church leaders were not merely puppets of the Germans, but showed great ability to maneuver and resist German directives in nearly every other realm, with the sole exception of executing the Final Solution. Although this scholarly exposition shines light on the extraordinary acts of a precious few Lithuanians in assisting Jews, it also exposes the far more typical acts of the many, whose indifference, hatred, or self-interest made genocide possible in Lithuania. Reviews: “A significant addition to contemporary Holocaust scholarship and contemporary Lithuanian historical writings. Bound to be controversial, she explores all of the important issues and shows the large measure of cooperation between the Germans and the native Lithuanian population in the implementation of the ‘Final Solution to the Jewish Problem,’ despite the important efforts of Lithuanian leaders to finesse their limited power to preserve the promise of Lithuanian independence. She easily dismisses the all too convenient explanation of contemporary Lithuanian historians that Jews were overly involved in Communist domination during the brief interval of Soviet occupation and she probes the deeper exploration of Lithuanian anti-Semitism. Throughout, her scholarship is sound, her reasoning sharp and her writing crisp. The work is unsettling in the most important sense of the term. It will disturb those who seek to exonerate Lithuanians and press all the responsibility on the Germans and the Jews. It forces a new confrontation with the historical record and for this we should be most grateful.” – Michael Berenbaum Executive Editor, Encyclopaedia Judaica Second Edition Director, Sigi Ziering Institute, American Jewish University, Los Angeles “Karen Sutton’s study of the Holocaust in Lithuania is a must for anyone wishing to understand the political and social complexities of this poignant and tragic chapter in Jewish history. The author carefully analyzes and makes a great effort to be fair and impartial to the various arguments advanced by Lithuanian apologists to excuse their countrymen’s massive collaboration in the extermination of the Jewish community. Her conclusions are inescapable in refuting the pro-Communist collusion charges leveled by many of these historians against the Jewish community at large in Lithuania…. Karen Sutton is to be praised for this deeply researched study of the Holocaust in Lithuania….

A strong sense of belonging to the Jewish people has been Stanley Abramovitch s driving motivation to assist Jewish communities and individuals on three continents and over six decades with faithful dedication. His work with JDC began in the DP camps in Germany, where he assisted in the rehabilitation of survivors, established schools, and saw to the individual needs of thousands of Jews. A collection of remarkable tales by a remarkable individual. Reviews: The author's description of his lifelong association with the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee – known to millions as the Joint – begins with the exhausted survivors of post-Holocaust Germany. He then takes us through the once-glorious Jewish communities of Iran and North Africa, to the revitalization of west European Jewry, and eventually to Israel and to the renaissance of Jewish life in the former Soviet Union. Crisp and intensely human, this portrayal offers inspiring insight into the capacity of Jews, collectively and individually, to secure their destiny. From Survival to Revival is a fascinating and eminently readable overview of Jewish history during the 20th century.
