Reviews

Professor Bartrop continues his publication agenda of important texts addressing the Holocaust. The Holocaust in 100 Histories is no exception. For students coming to grips with the enormity of the Holocaust, perhaps for the first time, the topics chosen should open doors to broadening their own understanding and thus enabling them to pursue their own questions and research. * Steven Leonard Jacobs, Professor of Religious Studies & Emeritus Aronov Chair of Judaic studies, the University of Alabama, USA *

Professor Bartrop continues his publication agenda of important texts addressing the Holocaust. The Holocaust in 100 Histories is no exception. For students coming to grips with the enormity of the Holocaust, perhaps for the first time, the topics chosen should open doors to broadening their own understanding and thus enabling them to pursue their own questions and research. * Steven Leonard Jacobs, Professor of Religious Studies & Emeritus Aronov Chair of Judaic studies, the University of Alabama, USA * Paul Bartrop’s collection of Holocaust vignettes brings this important historical event to life for readers. Month by month, the collection unfolds as each entry narrates the slow and irreversible descent into madness. The book is thoughtfully structured and engaging, as well as accessible to students and general readers alike who wish to gain an understanding of how the unthinkable could transpire in a Modern Europe renowned for its advanced civilization and cultural refinements. Readers will come away asking how such evil could have been engendered in our time and how might we never allow such evil again. * Dyanne K. Martin, Wheaton College, USA and Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy, UK * This book offers teachers and students an opportunity to explore the complicated history of the Holocaust in a series of stand- alone entries covering key moments and turning points that led to the genocide of the Jews. Each entry could serve as a jumping off point for students to conduct further research according to their interests be it about Nazi policies, perpetrators, rescuers, survivors, etc. This is a unique way of introducing the Holocaust to readers. * Beth A. Griech-Polelle, Mayer Chair of Holocaust Studies, Pacific Lutheran University, USA *
