This student edition of The
Destruction of the European Jews makes accessible for classroom use Raul Hilberg's landmark account of Germany's annihilation of Europe's Jewish communities in 1933-1945. Perhaps more than any other book, it answers the question: How did it happen? No single book has contributed more ... to an understanding of Nazi genocide.... This is one of the great historical works of our time." -Times Literary Supplement
"The standard text in its field ... [by] the preeminent scholar of the Holocaust." -New York Times Book Review
"[This study] ... is distinguished by its scholarly underpinning and overpowering logic." -Christian Science Monitor
