Learning About the Holocaust: A Student's Guide

by Macmillan Publishers

Macmillans 1991 Dartmouth Medal-winning Encyclopedia of the Holocaust set the standard for general reference encyclopedias on the subject. Learning About the Holocaust offers the same scholarship written at a level appropriate for high school, where the Holocaust is now a part of virtually every history curriculum. Articles in this 4-vol. set havebeen rewritten at 9th and 10th grade reading levels, and many new features have been added to enhance the text, including diary entries and stories about young people who lived during the Holocaust. Related source lists include books, magazines, movies and Web sites.
