<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In the early hours of November 10, 1938, Nazi storm troopers and Hitler Youth rampaged through Jewish neighborhoods across Germany, leaving behind them a horrifying trail of terror and destruction. More than a thousand synagogues and many thousands of Jewish shops were destroyed, while thirty thousand Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps. Kristallnacht--the Night of Broken Glass--was a decisive stage in the systematic eradication of a people who traced their origins in Germany to Roman times and was a sinister forewarning of the Holocaust.</p><p>With rare insight and acumen, Martin Gilbert examines this night and day of terror, presenting readers with a meticulously researched, masterfully written, and eye-opening study of one of the darkest chapters in human history. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A powerful account of the helplessness of the Jews."--<em>Booklist</em><br><br>"An excellent addition to Holocaust and World War II literature."--<em>Library Journal</em><br><br>"Searing and specific. . . a well-written survey of a turning point in modern history."--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br><br>"Factual, well documented and brilliant, Martin Gilbert's book on Crystal Night is a poignant lesson."--Elie Wiesel<br>
