Praise for NAZI GERMANY AND THE JEWS

«Friedländer draws strength from memory, yet adheres scrupulously to the discipline of a historian’s detachment. He writes history with a novelist’s sense of the telling detail; he is both analytic and evocative. . . . Nazi Germany and the Jews provides a readable, reliable, commendably unconventional overview.»
– NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

«Judicious, analytical, and compassionate. . . . This is a brilliant book, combining scholarly rigor with a compassionate treatment Buc of the human dimension of momentous historic decisions.”
– BOSTON GLOBE

«Rare sensibility graces the first volume of Friedländer’s history. . . . [He] has wrestled the ever-more-vast literature on the Holocaust into a forceful, coherent account.. Friedländer brings to the subject the dignity, complexity, and restraint it requires. He never shrinks from the truth that there is something unknowable at the core of the Nazi genocide.»
