Essential reading. ( )
  Brightman | Oct 18, 2019 |
This book gives information on what is in the museum and why it is there. It also explains the building aspects and why the setup is what it is. Personally, having never seen the museum, I feel this gives a good background for why the museum is needed. The pictures and words contained here are important for all of us. ( )

Table top book given to us by Henrietta. Shoah in words and pictures as shown in the museum. Toured this museum with two survivers. It was a very moving experience. ( )
