Tragedy and Triumph

Early Testimonies of Jewish Survivors of World War II

About this book

Freda Hodge retrieves early voices of Holocaust survivors with men, women and children relating experiences of deportation and ghettoisation, forced labor camps and death camps, death marches and liberation. Such eye-witness accounts collected in the immediate post-war period constitute, as the historian Feliks Tych points out, the most important body of Jewish documents pertaining to the history of the Holocaust. Carefully selected and painstakingly translated, these survivor accounts were first published between 1946 and 1948 in the Yiddish journal Fun Letzten Khurben ('From the Last Destruction'). These accounts have not previously been available in English.
