$13.68

The Holocaust in Hungary was one of the darkest chapters of World War II. In this important study, László Bernát Veszprémy discusses the role of the Hungarian Jewish leadership during the German occupation and the Holocaust. With a focus on the Jewish Councils, a group that has been almost universally attacked in the postwar period, Veszprémy analyzes their role in 1944–1945—under the Horthy regime, during the deportations, and under the Arrow Cross dictatorship—as well as the public response to these leaders in postwar society. Bereft of Council is an attempt to understand the actions of the Hungarian Jewish leadership during this time.
