520 _a"The accounts presented here are three of the basic sources for the the post war memory of the Holocaust among Salonikan Jews. They constiute the first official witness of those tragic years supplemented in succeeding years by a continuing current of personal memoirs in half a dozen languages. Yomtov Yacoel was the lawyer of the Community and liaison with the Nazi civilian representatives Dr. Max Merten and Dr. Muller. He maintained contact with Jewish and Christian political leaders in Athens. Dr. Matarasson was the post war physician for the survivors in Salonika. His report includes the earliest eyewitness stories of the fate of the Jews in Auschwitz including the medical experiments. Salomon Uziel provides the unique perspective of a Community leader and his fate after the war. An Appendix presents the constitution for the reorganization of the Community issued under German order in 1941."-- Publisher's description.
