From Library Journal
This tightly written, soundly researched, popular narrative by two British historians supplies an excellent overview of the events which signaled the termination of the Nazi's grudging toleration of the Jews in Germany. The precipitating factor was the assassination of the German embassy third secretary in Paris on November 7, 1938 by a young Polish-Jewish refugee. On the night of November 9-10, 1938, Kristallnacht, the "Night of Broken Glass," the Germans took their revenge in an orgy of organized burning of synagogues and Jewish businesses, along with beatings of Jews. Behind the scenes the German legal community prepared legislation that would force the Jews to the wall; many fled Germany, leaving their property and money in the hands of an almost bankrupt national government. Read and Fisher place Kristallnacht in global perspective, chronicling the collective ignoring of the German Jew's plight by a world tinged not a little with anti-Semitism in significant circles. For general and academic libraries.
