The systematic annihilation of six million Jews during World War II is the single most horrifying event of the twentieth century. Though much has been written on this subject of overwhelming terror and tragedy, the basic question persists: how could a modern state carry out the systematic murder of a whole people for no other reason than that they were Jews? In The War Against the Jews 1933-1945, Lucy Dawidowicz answers this question in a vivid historical narrative, avoiding the moral and metaphysical abstractions that have bedeviled and obscured the subject. - Jacket flap.
