Political scientist Alexander Groth, himself a Holocaust survivor and a former inhabitant of the Warsaw Ghetto, has collected 240 systematic interviews, which go far beyond the usual first-person accounts of private sufferings. The author questioned survivors about their anticipations and awareness of the Final Solution; their impression of those Germans who were active in it; and their views of fellow Jews, non-Jewish neighbours, Western Allies, the pope, and sundry political and social entities active and important during the period. The objective of this study is to arrive at a general understanding of this historic tragedy from the point of view of those who lived through it and have had the opportunity of a lifetime of mature reflection. The trove of information in this volume will be especially valuable to Holocaust scholars and leaves to posterity the significant voices of the survivors.
