It could be a good book to use with high school students or undergraduates in a course on the Holocaust. It is a short but interesting read that offers a complex view of interwar Jewish life, the Holocaust, postwar Europe, and memory that an instructor could use to effectively tease out constructive discussions from students.” -- Grant Harward, Texas A\u0026amp;M University * H-War *","brand":"Academic Studies Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51359750062423,"sku":"9781618114495","price":10.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781618114495.jpg?v=1754125598","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-righteous-of-the-wehrmacht-9781618114495","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
