"German interest in Jewish history intensified and became more variegated in the late twentieth century. The output of books, journals, museums, conferences, and research programs conveys this tendency. Nonetheless, doubts remain: How profound and how far-reaching is the contemporary grappling with Jewish and specifically with German Jewish history? Is the combination of denial and suppression, barely conscious guilt and shame, ignorance ..."

"The enactment of the German extermination policies that resulted in the murder of six million European Jews depended upon many factors, including the cooperation of local authorities and police departments, and the passivity of the populations, primarily of their political and spiritual elites. Necessary also was the victims' willingness to submit, often with the hope of surviving long enough to escape the German vise. The Years of Exte ..."

""Friedlander draws strength from memory, yet adheres scrupulously to the discipline of a historian's detachment. He writes history with a novelist's sense of the telling detail; he is both analytic and evocative.... "Nazi Germany and the Jews"... provides a readable, reliable, commendably unconventional overview". -- "New York Times Book Review" "Judicious, analytic and compassionate.... This is a brilliant book, combining scholarly rig ..."

His new book is a singularly important contribution to our understanding of the evolving memory of the Nazi period within German and Jewish historical consciousness." ―Alvin H. Rosenfeld"... This volume is of importance not only for Holocaust research itself, but also for understanding German and I ..."
"November 9th 1938 is widely seen as a violent turning point in Nazi Germany's assault on the Jews. An estimated 400 Jews lost their lives in the anti-Semitic pogrom and more than 30,000 were imprisoned or sent to concentration camps, where many were brutally mistreated. Thousands more fled their homelands in Germany and Austria, shocked by what they had seen, heard and experienced. What they took with them was not only the pain of ..."
"On 6 October 1943, Himmler's object was to implicate the top-level dignitaries of
the National Socialist party, "this political instrument of the Fuhrer,"23 in a
commitment to joint responsibility; moreover, to responsibility "for an act, and not
just an idea."24 Although to have spoken in front of the SS Grup- penfuhrers of "
the highest possible order" would have been almost ridiculous, in front of the
Gauleiters and Reichslei- te ..."

"A great historian crowns a lifetime of thought and research by answering a question that has haunted us for more than 50 years: How did one of the most industrially and culturally advanced nations in the world embark on and continue along the path leading to one of the most enormous criminal enterprises in history, the extermination of Europe's Jews?

In 1939, seven-year-old Pavel and his family were forced to flee Czechoslovakia for France, but his parents were able to conceal their son in a Roman Catholic seminary before being shipped to their destruction.
