Hello, My name is Simon Smith, and I work for Ivan R. Dee Publishers in Chicago. One of our authors has recently published a book called Exodus to Berlin. We think it may be of great interest to your organization. It is an expose of sorts-- inside the little-noticed but fascinating new European migration. The book is already garnering high praise. Here is a brief synopsis:
*Jews are finding sanctuary in Germany from the anti-Semitism, violence, and economic chaos that plague the former Soviet empire. But almost simultaneous with the first flow of Jewish immigrants, and stimulated by the failure of German unification to deliver promised prosperity to the former East Germany, neo-Nazis have been on the march in Germany, vowing to reclaim "Germany for the Germans!" More than a hundred murders and countless acts of vandalism are blamed on marauding right-wingers. Peter Laufer brings this current history to life through vivid narratives of events he experienced in Germany and dozens of highly personal interviews he conducted with the participants who want to send those immigrants to Israel. Exodus to Berlin is a book of uncommon interest about one of the more unnoticed developments on the European continent. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and two maps.* If you or anyone on staff would like to review this book, read/promote it, or would like to mention it or link it to your website, please let me know, I can set something up. Thank you Simon Smith Publicity Ivan R.
