"[O]ne of the most important books in the vast literature on the Holocaust.... The extent of cruelty exhibited here and the uncontrolled ways in which it happened are a graphic demonstration of what the human race is capable of when left entirely to its own devices." - William B. Helmreich, Long Island Jewish World; "[P]repared by Ehrenburg and Grossman themselves, with fine literary skill.... Each section of the documents has a useful set of notes compiled by David Patterson, author of this excellent translation, which clarifies factual issues, and presents brief biographies of more significant figures." - Richard Overy, Times Literary Supplement
