In this book, Esther Gitman, a Holocaust survivor from Sarajevo, documents the saga of the Jews of Yugoslavia with a focus on Sarajevo, her birthplace. The book features an examination of archival documents from Sarajevo, Zagreb, Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC and more. The ground-breaking work reveals the many facets of Jewish life in Yugoslavia from the time of their expulsion from Spain and Portugal in 1492. This book provides an in-depth look at the integral role the Sephardic Jews, from the Hebrew word for Spain, played in the broader development of the city. More broadly, the book provides readers with a glimpse into a community which saw seventy percent of its members annihilated during WWII.
