The Warsaw GhettoQuestion:
Ralf P. Loserth answers:Good Morning, An excellent source on this subject would be a book by Martin Gilbert called The Holocaust - A History of the Jews during the second World War. It is both in hard cover and soft back. It is published by Henry Holt and Company, and the ISBN number is 0-8050-0348-7 Good luck. Ralf P. Loserth
Harry W. Mazal OBE answers:Thank you for your recent request for information. I am one of the persons at the Holocaust History Project that responds to questions from our readers. It is possible that other members of our project will wish to respond as well. To get a visual idea of what happened to the Jews who were confined to the Warsaw ghetto, there is no better source than the photographs taken by the Nazi perpetrators. If you visit our web-page again at: http://www.holocaust-history.org/works/stroop-report/htm/intro001.htm and scroll down the page you will come upon 49 thumbnail pictures of the final moments of the Warsaw ghetto as taken by the military troops under Major General Stroop. If you click on the link which appears in the second paragraph at the top of the page which reads: _displayed by Jackson_ you will be taken to a description in English of these actions as they appear in Volume 2, pages 126 and 127, of the International Military Tribunal. I suggest that you visit your school library and look for:
The Encyclopedia of the Holocaust and look under "Warsaw" for an in-depth article on the creation of the ghetto and a description of the living conditions that the Jews were forced to endure. Yours sincerely, Harry W. Mazal OBE Question:
