The one exception to that rule is Atlas of the Holocaust by Martin Gilbert . This resource contains 316 maps that trace each phase of the Holocaust, beginning with the antisemitic violence of pre-war Germany to the expulsion of Jews from towns and villages, the establishment of ghettos, and the setting up of the death camps. The atlas includes sites of acts of resistance and revolts, areas of Jewish partisan activity, killings of children and non-Jews, and the flight of survivors.
Explanatory text accompanies the maps, chronicling the details and explaining the sources.
It should be available in most major bookstores. If you are unable to acquire the book, contact us and we will make arrangements to get a copy to you. The first comprehensive text on the Holocaust was written in the 1960 s by Raul Hilberg , titled The Destruction of the European Jews . Hilberg primarily used as his sources the documentary evidence left by the Nazis, and his book continues to be the most extensive examination of this source of evidence. The book can probably be found in your local library as either a thick paperback or a three-volume hardcover set.
