A landmark achievement in Holocaust scholarship, Remembering Voices of the Holocaust is culled from hours of first person accounts from survivors recorded for inclusion in the sound archives of both the Imperial War Museum in London, and the National Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC. In their own words, Jewish survivors as well as Gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, and both perpetrators and ordinary observers recount the entire horrific arc of the Holocaust from the ominous rise of the Nazi party during the Weimar days through the liquidation of the ghettos and the institution of Hitler's "final solution," continuing on to the liberation of the camps and the harrowing aftermath of the War. Contains a selection of transcripts taken from the sound archives of Britain's Imperial War Museum and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Interviews of Holocaust survivors, refugees, families of the murdered and of survivors, aid workers and troops who liberated the camps are included. My family had lived in Germany for several generations and regarded themselves as Germans mainly.
