A detailed, meticulously researched, and sobering account of one village's rich history and heritage and ultimate destruction in the Holocaust. Has many interesting individuals coupled with photographs and is a book that has a strong impact on any reader regardless of background. The compelling interest and life's work of the author. Long narrative, but never seems so because of the subject and the author's skill. Have read the twice. ( ) NO OF PAGES: 818 SUB CAT I: Holiness SUB CAT II: European Jews SUB CAT III: DESCRIPTION: Professor Yaffa Eliach, whose haunting collection of photographs at the Holocaust Memorial Museum gave faces to a murdered people, has written the history of that people. Eliach's nine-century saga of Eastern European Jewish life is richer and fuller than any ever written. Her research took her from family attics on six continents to state archives no scholar had seen since the start of the Cold War. Confronted with the near disappearance of the world of the shtetl, Eliach was indefatigable in her search for the truth--of a people, a place, a culture.NOTES: SUBTITLE: A 900-Year Chronicle of the Shtetl of Eishyshok geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
