Browning and Between Dignity and Despair: Jewish Life in Nazi Germany by Marion A. Kaplan.…

    Perhaps the most dreadful event in recent history is the tragedy that befell the world during the Holocaust. Throughout a twelve year period, the Nazis were able to wreak havoc and torture innocent people purely because of their “inferiority”.
