The Holocaust in Croatia stands as the definitive account of the
Jews in Croatia.-- "New Books Network"
Anyone looking for an objective treatment of the Croatian Holocaust
need look no further than Ivo and Slavko Goldstein's The Holocaust
in Croatia. Based on extensive archival research, as well as
energetic and comprehensive use of contemporary newspaper accounts
and secondary sources, this volume, written by two of Croatia's
preeminent historians, tells the story of the Jewish community in
Croatia from earliest times up through the Second World War,
focusing especially on the Jewish community in Zagreb. This
riveting account belongs in every university library.-- "Sabrina
Petra Ramet, Norwegian University of Science and Technology"
The Holocaust in Croatia is a voluminous work and a substantial
contribution to the study of European Jewry. This new English
translation is long overdue and destined to reach a far broader
audience while influencing Holocaust Studies in a profound
manner.-- "European History Quarterly"
The authors document the destruction of about 80 percent of the
Jews in the quasi-autonomous independent State of Croatia . . .
Written in intimate detail, the book is an important source about a
lesser-known corner of the Holocaust in the heart of Europe.--
