HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS' TESTIMONY BOOK LIST

This is only a partial list of some of the appropriate titles of survivor testimony in the UF library.  You will find many more titles than this through the UF Library website.  Type in "holocaust" and "personal" in the advanced search windows at: http://uf.catalog.fcla.edu/uf.jsp?ADV=S&S=C55UNGJL2VL63SYJYR8F7L3YBI35PSXEG8Y1YGPLDDXAXXQYBG

TITLES ALREADY TAKEN BY A STUDENT IN OUR CLASS ARE MARKED WITH AN ASTERISK BELOW

If the book you wish to write on does not appear on the list below, then you must bring it to me in my office for approval.  Not in class, not in the hallway, not in the parking lot, but in my office, because I need to add it to this list on my computer, if I approve it!
