[ha-Safran] Genocide Awareness Month - books that should be in every Holocaust library

[Terry Tegnazian via Hasafran]

Since April is Genocide Awareness Month, I'd like to mention two of our books 
that should be in every Holocaust library collection. Both are available from 
online retailers and all major wholesalers, as well as from our distributor 
National Book Network,

:

"The Auschwitz Volunteer: Beyond Bravery" by Captain Witold Pilecki, with a 
Foreword by Michael Schudrich, Chief Rabbi of Poland, and an Introduction by 
Prof. Norman Davies. The New York Times calls this award-winning book "a 
historical document of the greatest importance." Polish Army officer Witold 
Pilecki volunteered for a secret undercover mission for the Polish Underground: 
get himself arrested by the Germans and sent to Auschwitz, where he was to 
smuggle out reports for the Allies on what was going on and build a resistance 
organization among the prisoners. This is the first time that Pilecki's most 
comprehensive report on his undercover mission has been translated and 
published in English. The book trailer is at

"Fighting Auschwitz: The Resistance Movement in the Concentration Camp" by 
Jozef Garlinski, Ph.D., with an Introduction by Prof. Antony Polonsky, Chief 
Historian, POLIN Museum of the History of Polish Jews, Warsaw and Emeritus 
Professor of Holocaust Studies, Brandeis University.
Prof. Polonsky calls it "the definitive study of the topic." This award-winning 
book examines the various prisoners' resistance organizations inside Auschwitz 
and the overall evolution of Auschwitz from a concentration camp for Polish 
political prisoners to a death camp for Jews. The author was himself a member 
of the Polish Underground, arrested by the Germans and sent to Auschwitz. The 
book trailer is at
