He has also used his professional skills as a historian... to weave the scattered and often fragmen- tary evidence into a seamless narrative...."-John Gross, The New York Times "Will doubtless stand as a classic history....Indispensable for the material it contains, for the soundness of its scholarship, and for Gilbert's ability to narrate and present this history in a style that bears the weight of the subject matter."-The Christian Science Monitor "He weaves the cold facts with the nightmarish oral histories into a masterly chronological narrative.... The Holocaust confronts us with the most clear-cut yet unanswerable questions about our humanity, our values and our capacity for suffering...by implication we learn how it could happen again."-Peter Hay, The Los Angeles Times "An impressive achievement of reconstructing the details of the darkest, as well as the most elusive event in modern Jewish history."-Jewish Books in Review "It is [the victims'] testimonies, culled from archives in many countries, from personal interviews and from an enormous literature in several languages, that give this book its immediacy and overwhelming impact....It is Mr. Gilbert's impressive achievement to remind us of ordinary human beings living and suffering behind the mass anonymity of statistics..."-The New York Times Book Review "This book must be read and reread. It will be painful to you, but you must read it anyway. To know? No. To understand? No, not that either. But simply to remember all those whom the world, once upon a time, tried to forget."-Elie Wiesel, The Chicago Tribune ISBN 0-8050-0348-7 90000 9780805 003482
