The Kennedy Family
America has no official royalty by design. Yet there have been the Roosevelts, the Adams, the Bushes, the wanabee Clintons and most intriguing of all -- the Kennedys. The Kennedys have so far only reached the presidency once but the assassination of JFK and his brother Robert, and the trials and tribulations of the family members and society in general continue to fascinate the world. This new book presents more than 1200 citations of books and related materials arranged by family member. The accompanying CD-ROM offers ready access and easy searching.
Double Exile
This is a social history of refugees escaping Hungary after the Bolshevik-type revolution of 1919, the ensuing counterrevolution, and the rise of anti-Semitism. Largely Jewish and German before World War I, the Hungarian middle class was torn by the disastrous war, the partitioning of Hungary in the Treaty of Trianon, and the numerus clausus act XXV in 1920 that seriously curtailed the number of Jews admitted to higher education. Hungary's outstanding future professionals, whether Jewish, Liberal or Socialist, felt compelled to leave the country and head to German-speaking universities in Austria, Czechoslovakia, and Germany. When Hitler came to power, these exiles were to flee again, many o...

Familienbriefe 1903–1921
Sigismund von Radecki (1891–1970) stammte aus dem Baltikum und war als Schriftsteller und Übersetzer tätig. Aus seinen umfangreichen Korrespondenzen werden in diesem Band die 136 frühesten erhaltenen Briefe veröffentlicht, vermehrt um 19 weitere Dokumente. Die Edition bietet sämtliche Schreiben im vollen Wortlaut und erschließt sie durch einen ausführlichen Sachkommentar sowie eine biographische Einleitung. Die von 1903 bis 1921 reichenden Familienbriefe zeigen eindrücklich das geistige Fortschreiten Radeckis von einem wachen, interessierten Kind hin zu einem begabten jungen Mann, dessen spätere literarische Laufbahn man zu erahnen vermeint. Gleichzeitig ging das deutschbaltische Milieu, in dem er aufwuchs und dem er sich verbunden fühlte, samt seiner Familie unter. Diese gegenläufige Entwicklung verleiht der Ausgabe ihr besonderes, charakteristisches Gepräge.
Never Despair
In August 1942 a thirty-year-old counsel in the Geneva office of the World Jewish Congress sent a cable to Rabbi Stephen Wise in New York with the following message: RECEIVED ALARMING REPORT THAT IN FUHRERS HEADQUARTERS PLAN DISCUSSED AND UNDER CONSIDERATION ALL JEWS IN COUNTRIES OCCUPIED OR CONTROLLED GERMANY NUMBER 3-1/2 TO 4 MILLION SHOULD AFTER DEPORTATION AND CONCENTRATION IN EAST AT ONE BLOW EXTERMINATED TO RESOLVE ONCE FOR ALL JEWISH QUESTION IN EUROPE. Sent by Gerhart Riegner, this first recorded notice of the "Final Solution" came to be known as the Riegner Telegram. It was perhaps the most famous and tragic moment in Riegner's career, but there were many other important and fascina...
