Yisker-Bikher (Memorial Books)
Yisker-bikher, or Memorial Books, were
written after the Holocaust by survivors. The purpose of these books was to
document the shetls (Jewish villages of Central and Eastern Europe) that
were destroyed and to record the names of those Jews killed by Nazis or Nazi
sympathizers. Yiskor books are a source of valuable information about life
in Jewish towns before the Holocaust. |
