Reviews

[A] remarkable and moving study in the recovery of an endangered past ... This wonderful book has recovered an important strand of Holocaust history for students, scholars and general readers alike.
*Journal of European Studies*

A book which … deserves a good readership; and this is because of its raw material … [It] sticks in the mind by virtue of the strength and value of its primary material.
*The Slavonic and East European Review*

This is an important study of the difficulties Lithuania faces in coming to terms with the legacy of the Soviet and Nazi occupations and how these are being dealt with.
*Social History*

Woolfson’s thought-provoking study makes a valuable contribution to the history of Lithuanian Jewry.
*Journal of Modern Jewish Studies*
