Product Code:	9780253219930
Description:	By Isaiah Trunk
Product Detail:	A Publication of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum In his comprehensive examination of the Lodz ghetto, historian Isaiah Trunk describes and explains the tragedy that befell the more than 200,000 Jews imprisoned in the first major ghetto imposed by the Germans. Based on an exhaustive study of primary sources, Trunk’s detailed narrative and accompanying statistical analysis reconstruct the organization of the ghetto. Trunk discusses its provisioning; forced labor; diseases and mortality; crime and deportations; living conditions; political, social, and cultural life; and resistance. In addition to Robert Moses Shapiro’s clear and accessible translation of Trunk’s text and 141 documents, there is a substantial essay by Israel Gutman on the distinctiveness of the Lodz ghetto, a biographical sketch of Isaiah Trunk by Joseph Kermish, and 41 photographs from the collection of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum.
