Speak You Also
by Paul Steinberg
Arrested in Paris in 1943, the sixteen-year-old Steinberg was deported to Auschwitz. As a chemistry student, he was assigned to work in the camp's laboratory alongside Primo Levi, who would later immortalize him as "Henri," the prisoner who clung to his life at the cost of his own humanity in Survival in Auschwitz. Fifty years later, in this unsparing act of self-examination, Steinberg ultimately confirms Levi's judgment of him: "Probably I was that creature, prepared to use whatever means I had available." But he asks, "Is it so wrong to survive?"

Rescue As Resistance
by Lucien Lazare
A survivor of the Holocaust in France and a distinguished scholar of Jewish history, Lucien Lazare presents a compelling defense of the Jewish resistance movement in France during the World War II. This impassioned work--which resulted in heated public debate after its release in France--tells the gripping tale of French Jews who resisted the Final Solution. Contradicting the traditional wisdom that French Jews went silently to the slaughter, "Rescue as Resistance" comprehensively documents the widespread and remarkably effective rescue and relief efforts to combat Nazi annihilation following the first deportations in 1942. Lazare points to the existence of specifically Jewish resistance movements in contrast to the more general French groups, arguing that the goals of these varied organizations were actually quite different. While the French resistance hoped to drive the Germans out of France through guerrilla warfare, the Jewish groups were concerned primarily with saving as many Jews as possible. Drawing upon an impressive array of source material, Rescue as Resistance challenges readers to look beyond armed combat as a form of resistance. Lazare persuasively argues that rescue--a category that includes such activities as smuggling Jews across borders, fabricating false papers, or hiding children--was a genuine and significant form of opposition to the Nazi threat. "Rescue as Resistance" embraces the diversity of Jewish resistance movements as well, covering groups ranging from Zionists to Communists and foreign-born immigrants. Presenting a far broader view of Jewish resistance than has been previously accepted, "Rescue as Resistance" offers general readers and historians alike a more accurate picture of the efforts of Jews to combat the horrors of the Holocaust.
