This key text for National Curriculum History has been fully revised and updated to take account of recent world events. It traces the history of antisemitism and describes the experiences before and during the Holocaust of Jews, Gypsies and other groups deemed by the Nazis to be unworthy of life.

By following the experiences of four individuals who endured the Holocaust, Carrie Supple gives a face to the millions who perished. The themes she explores - collaboration, indifference, obedience, dehumanisation, resistance and rescue - make the book a valuable resource for Citizenship, RE, PSE, Psychology and Humanities lessons.

Reviews

Although there are few books which one can say in all honesty that all teachers in all subjects and all sectors should read, this is one of them. - Times Educational Supplement

Supple’s enduring classic - Children’s Social Economic Education

Full of illustrations and photographs and serves not only as a useful source for any examination of the Holocaust but also includes an examination of the persecution of gay people, Armenians and Gypsies.- British Sociological Association Network

I urge you to buy this book for your school, to use it with your pupils, even though there is far more here than any teacher could possibly get through in the time available. Even if you don’t teach about the Holocaust buy it for yourself. - Teaching History

An outstanding book that both teachers and students will find informative and moving. - LIB ED

An undoubted success - ideal not only for classroom teaching but also for the consumption of a wider audience.Will help to foster greater awareness of this most crucial period of history. - New Community

A magnificent work. - Young People Now
