Notes from the Warsaw Ghetto
by Emanuel Ringelblum
Ringelblum had been a historian before the war, and when the war began he had a stroke of genius. He organised a team of people to go out and save all the material they could find about the life of the ghetto. They were anxious that the Nazi voice should not be the only voice to be heard. The importance of this collection is the good faith effort to collect material and provide for future generations a record of what was going on, on a daily basis, in the Jewish communities under siege.
