If you want information about a shetl or ghetto this is where you find it.By AnyccThis is a very important book as it is the only collection of histories of shetls and ghettos.In some cases these are the only records that remain. I found out all sorts of things about Grodno that I'd never heard before. Really quite stunning.2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. An amazing reference workBy Elayne LetraunikThese books give details on all the Ghettos in Europe during the Holocaust; many of them very small. For any student of the Holocaust these books are invaluable
