About this product

Product Information

This concise, easy-to-use resource on the Holocaust is rich in factual and statistical information, and provides a comprehensive compilation of the people and terms that are essential for an understanding of the Holocaust. In 2,000 entries, it profiles major personalities, covers concentration and death camps, cities and countries, and significant events. Also included are important terms translated from German, French, Polish, Yiddish, and twelve other languages. Biographical entries give a brief history, the person's significance, and their historical context. Geographical entries pinpoint exact locations using other cities or countries as landmarks, and give the number of Jewish inhabitants before Nazi occupation, and the percentage of Jews killed. Historical background is provided for such events as Kristallnacht and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, and entries on concentration and death camps give details on the nationalities interned, the camp's specific location, and its history. This reference is impressive in its scope and includes major perpetrators, bystanders, collaborators, victims, rescuers such as Righteous Gentiles, Jewish ghetto fighters, and partisans. It also explores the role of women and the complicity of physicians and industrialists during the Holocaust more fully than any other reference. This dictionary provides the information needed by students whose understanding of the Holocaust is limited by the absence of a single accessible research text.

Reviews
"This is an eminently useful reference work that contains some 2,000 entries relating to the Holocaust. These entries are succinct (rarely longer than a paragraph) and in most cases include biographical references."- Dimensions, "This resource on the Holocaust providesreaders with factual and statistical information and acts as a compilation of the people and term that are essential for an understanding of the Holocaust."- Bulletin of the Arnold and Leona Finkder Institute of Holocaust Research, "[T]he dictionary's entries are not only succinct but also passionless in a reportorial objectivity that gives them unimpeachable credibility and authority....No collection on 20th-century history will be complete without this."- Rettig on Reference, "...provides a great deal of information in a compact form....This information has a great deal of impact. It brings the events to life for readers and helps them understand what happened. This work is a welcome addition for public, school, and academic libaries." ARBA, "[T]he dictionary's entries are not only succinct but also passionless in a reportorial objectivity that gives them unimpeachable credibility and authority....No collection on 20th-century history will be complete without this." Rettig on Reference, "...provides a great deal of information in a compact form....This information has a great deal of impact. It brings the events to life for readers and helps them understand what happened. This work is a welcome addition for public, school, and academic libaries."- ARBA, "This dictionary covers all aspects of the Holocaust--people, places and events.... Data contained in the entries take the information beyond 1945 and include war crimes and trials. Information on the postliberation whereabouts of many Nazis is included.... Although most of the entries deal with the Jewish situation, coverage of Nazi victimization of other groups is included. High-school or academic libraries looking for basic Holocaust information should consider this work. It is a good ready-reference supplement..."- Booklist/Reference Books Bulletin, "This dictionary covers all aspects of the Holocaust--people, places and events....
