A fascinating collection of authentic reports, poetic narratives and historical facts

Flight and expulsion, exodus and Diaspora characterise the history of the Jewish people. However, the intention of this book is not only to give historical facts but to look at this chapter of world events from a different angle. Three narrative levels join up to create a many-sided and profound account of the history of the Jews – an extended journey through countries, peoples and centuries.

Waldtraut Lewin's account is impressive, covering not only expulsion and terror but also hope and people courageously making their way in the world…



• An important standard work for teenagers and adults

• Historical facts alternate with partly fictitious narrative passages to bring history alive

• With a glossary of the most important Jewish holidays, word definitions, factual explanations and a clear time chart

• With a foreword by Avi Primor, the former Israeli ambassador in Germany

• Volume 2 planned for 2013
