Final Journey: Holocaust is filled with eye-witness accounts and contemporary evidence regarding the Nazis plan to send millions of Jews to the death camps. Wherever possible, author Martin Gilbert has given precise dates of documents quoted, and has cited the actual words used at the time. Since the Nazi attempt to murder the Jews of Europe concerned individual people—people with names, families, careers, and futures, for millions of whom no one survived to mourn, or even remember—Gilbert has tried to tell their stories, as well as of communities. We learn how these journeys were organized, where they went, the fate of those who were on them, and that no two journeys or experiences were the same. Through a series of these journeys, this book brings into sharp focus what the victims actually went through.
