The Encyclopedia of Jewish Life Before and During the Holocaust: K-Sered
This three-volume encyclopedia, abridged from a 30-volume set in Hebrew and with a foreword by Elie Wiesel, chronicles Jewish life before and during the Holocaust. Arranged alphabetically by town, thousands of entries explore centuries of Jewish life. Some entries, particularly for large cities, provide information on Jewish residents as early as the Middle Ages and discuss the fate of Jews during the Black Death persecutions (1348-1349) and various pogroms from the 17th to 20th centuries. Each entry provides information on the town's Jewish inhabitants on the eve of German occupation, gives the dates of Jewish roundups and mass executions and estimates how many Jews from that community survived the war. Includes more than 600 black-and-white photographs.
Royal Polish Letters: 1350-1360 AD
This is a brief snapshot of the correspondence of the Polish king Casimir III the Great during the zenith of his power over western Europe. His communication with his bishops and nobles relate to questions of the stability over the Polish realm, as well his relationship with other sovereign powers, such as the Teutonic Knights to his northern frontier. This collection also grants some insight into the piety of the prince, and his care for the Catholic faith as a binding force to union his dominion together.
