Words to Outlive Us: Eyewitness Accounts from the Warsaw Ghetto, Grynberg, Michal. Published by Granta Books, London, 2004. Translated from the Polish by Philip Boehm. Softcover. In fine condition without marks, tears or folds.

"...a unique and never before published record of life in the ghetto by the men and women who experienced it. Most of the accounts were written during the war, some by anonymous authors, many by writers who later disappeared - their writings were found in the rubble of ruined buildings, in attics or basements, or else passed from hand to hand until they found their way into the archives. They describe the creation of the ghetto, how it was run, the struggle for shelter and food, collaboration and resistance, and the round-ups which led the unknowing victims to almost certain death in Treblinka. This book stands as a collective memoir of one of modern history's darkest episodes".
