Product Review
"The scores of documents of various types that it contains provide a sense of immediacy and feeling for the horror that was the Shoah in a way that no secondary source could ever give. It is hard to imagine that anyone will want to teach a course on the Holocaust without having students read and discuss this collection." -- David I. Kertzer, Dupee University Professor, Brown University
"Steve Hochstadt's brilliant study probes the causes of the Holocaust through the centuries, and it documents its perpetration with painstaking accuracy. Sources of the Holocaust is a lasting contribution to the history of persecution and genocide." -- Judith Magyar Isaacson, author of Seed of Sarah: Memoirs of a Survivor
"A valuable volume of sources.' - Louise Willmot, Manchester Metropolitan University
"Hochstadt's new collection of holocaust related sources is a highly valuable addition to the field. Its broad range of materials ensures the inclusion of both key documents and lesser known materials that are both significant and shocking. Its combined chronological and thematic organization will allow scholars to make new historiographical connections, as well as providing teachers and students with a clear, accurate and concrete documentary base from which to teach and learn about the different historical stages and lessons of the Holocaust."
-- Anna Reading, London South Bank University
"This is a very useful, wide-ranging set of texts that set the issue in its widest historical context. The commentaries are very helpful." -- Professor Conan Fischer, University of Strathclyde
"A very good, wide ranging collection. The best of its kind." -- Dr Patrick Finney, University of Wales, Aberystwyth
"those who want to understnad the way the war actually worked will learn a great deal." -- The Australian Jewish News
