Book Description
Based on sound analysis of European, Jewish, and Holocaust literature and historical documents, Edelstein's work seeks to explain the active role of Christians (especially the papacy), and of secular and religious leaders that ensured the survival of Jews in a hostile environment. The study begins in the time of Rome and ends in the period following World War II.
