Story
On a sunny morning in May 1939, a phalanx of 867 women - housewives, doctors, opera singers, politicians, prostitutes - was marched through the woods 50 miles north of Berlin, driven on past a shining lake, then herded in through giant gates. Whipping and kicking them were scores of German women guards. Their destination was Ravensbrück, a concentration camp designed specifically for women by Heinrich Himmler, prime architect of the Holocaust.

For half a century, a terrible secret lay hidden, locked in a trunk in an attic... photos, official documents, and scraps of a diary written by a young girl. "The time has come when I must share my life story... some facts from the past that could make a contribution, however small it may be, to the history of mankind." The Secret Holocaust Diaries is a haunting eyewitness account of Nonna Lisowskaja Bannister, a remarkable Russian-American woman who saw and survived unspeakable evils as a young girl.

That was until 1938 when the first bit of turmoil started to hit their village located in the Sub-Carpathian mountains - anti-Semitism started running rampant like a disease. It began taking ahold of everyone around them. Those who were once friends now became vicious enemies. Rifcha began to realize that her world was about to crumble.

Laurence Rees has spent 25 years meeting the survivors and perpetrators of the Third Reich and the Holocaust. In this sweeping history, he combines this testimony with the latest academic research to investigate how history's greatest crime was possible. Rees argues that while hatred of the Jews was at the epicenter of Nazi thinking, we cannot fully understand the Holocaust without considering Nazi plans to kill millions of non-Jews as well.

Filip Müller came to Auschwitz with one of the earliest transports from Slovakia in April 1942 and began working in the gassing installations and crematoria in May. He was still alive when the gassings ceased in November 1944. He saw millions come and disappear; by sheer luck he survived. Müller is neither a historian nor a psychologist; he is a source - one of the few prisoners who saw the Jewish people die and lived to tell about it. Eyewitness Auschwitz is one of the key documents of the Holocaust.

Seventy years ago, Joe Rubinstein walked out of a Nazi concentration camp. Until now, his story has been hidden from the world. Shortly before dawn on a frigid morning in Radom, Poland, 21-year-old Joe answered a knock at the door of the cottage he shared with his widowed mother and siblings. German soldiers forced him onto a crowded open-air truck. Wearing only an undershirt and shorts, Joe was left on the truck with no protection from the cold. By the next morning, several around him would be dead. From there, things got worse for young Joe, much worse.

On March 25, 1942, nearly a thousand young, unmarried Jewish women boarded a train in Poprad, Slovakia. Filled with a sense of adventure and national pride, they left their parents' homes wearing their best clothes and confidently waving good-bye. Believing they were going to work in a factory for a few months, they were eager to report for government service. Instead, the young women - many of them teenagers - were sent to Auschwitz. Their government paid 500 Reich Marks (about $200) apiece for Nazis to take them as slave labor. Of those 999 innocent deportees, only a few survived.

Publisher's Summary
In the shouted words of a woman bound for Auschwitz to a man about to escape from a cattle car, "If you get out, maybe you can tell the story! Who else will tell it?"
Our Crime Was Being Jewish contains 576 vivid memories of 358 Holocaust survivors. These are the true, insider stories of victims, told in their own words. They include the experiences of teenagers who saw their parents and siblings sent to the gas chambers; of starving children beaten for trying to steal a morsel of food; of people who saw their friends commit suicide to save themselves from the daily agony they endured. The recollections are from the start of the war - the home invasions, the Gestapo busts, and the ghettos - as well as the daily hell of the concentration camps and what actually happened inside.
Six million Jews were killed in the Holocaust, and this hefty collection of stories told by its survivors is one of the most important books of our time. It was compiled by award-winning author Anthony S. Pitch, who worked with sources such as the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum to get survivors' stories compiled together and to supplement them with images from the war. These memories must be told and held on to so what happened is documented; so the lives of those who perished are not forgotten; so history does not repeat itself.

Fascinating and Disturbing
What did you love best about Our Crime Was Being Jewish?
This may be one of the most informative books I have ever read about Holocaust survivors. It terrifies, it invokes empathy,it enlists great respect for the plight of the Jewish people and it is compelling. I have read hundreds of books about the Holocaust and the Nazis, but this shed even more light on the atrocities committed against the Jewish people of Europe and those who helped them.
What did you like best about this story?
It is not a story but a series of brief interviews with survivors; a recollection of events that marked their lives during WWII. The courage of these survivors and liberators is beyond imagination. For Holocaust deniers, this is a MUST read.
What does Malk Williams and Fenella Fudge bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Their complete immersion into reading the personal horrors of the survivors. The feeling that they put into the reading makes you feel as though you are listening to the actual people tell their rememberances.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
No. You could never digest this in one sitting. It is a book I will listen to more than once.
Any additional comments?
I have such deep feelings for the Jewish people who suffered under the Nazis, and for those who risked their lives to protect them in any way they could. The US military men who spoke about what they saw should be a light to all who try to deny the Holocaust. It happened and it should never be forgotten.

I found out through DNA and process of elimination that my grandfather was Jewish. this piece of information sent me into immersion of the history of the time. I am not certain that this book taught me anything that I didn't already know but hearing it first person was moving and bittetsweet. The only crime a Jew ever committed was being Jewish.

An unapologetic look at a horrible event
What did you love best about Our Crime Was Being Jewish?
How educational it was.
What did you like best about this story?
See above.
What does Malk Williams and Fenella Fudge bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
A touch of authenticity and another level of emotion.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
I hate these questionnaires. How could someone NOT find any part of a book of this nature moving?
Any additional comments?
I think speaking on how this audiobook made me feel would only sound self-indulgent or ignorant. So what I have to say is if you want to really know, to really understand, what those people went through on every level, this book does that. It’s a simple record. Each anecdote is backed up by a specific file number and reference point. I wanted to learn more, and I think this book deserves, maybe even demands, to be read. It’s the history of a people crying out to be remembered.
Williams and Fudge did an amazing job bringing these records to life. History such as this needs to be remembered.

To hear what so many went through during those dark times in the camps and the days of Holocaust humbles one.

Disjointed, annoying.
There was no structure to this at all, it was not arranged chronologically as would be expected, nor by geography in any way. It is unsuitable listening as an audio book. Some sections are mere seconds long, followed by a 15 second reading (after every single very short passage) of the alphanumeric library source of where the passage came from.. This was beyond irritating and utterly unnecessary - if you were reading the book, you would not read every reference digit out. If I have to hear one more time “....made possible by a donation from John and Jane Smith, the Dakota branch of the blah blah, US MHC 12345.567 star 01” (or simllar, I will scream.

Their Voices, their Truth.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. I think everyone should read this and think of it's implications today.
Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I don't think anyone could listen to this without being emotionally stunned.
Any additional comments?
This is not a narrative.
Simply the voices of survivors, telling of the horror endured. Sadly very few of whom have lived into the 21st Century.
Luckily their testament has been recorded in print, on film and tape, to stand as an indictment of horror for all time.

Interesting stories but completely hampered by the terrible readings and awful fake accents of all of the narrators. They completely ruin it with their over the top, ridiculous accents and readings. A shame as these stories deserve to be told but the narrators should have just used their normal accents.

Understanding our meaning.
To find our meaning, we have to know our species, we have to know what we are capable off. The stories in this book have to be heard and felt by all, because they are human just as we are. To the memory of those who lost their lives through these acts of depravity we have a moral obligation to never forget. We must force ourselves to listen, and place ourselves in some very uncomfortable positions to understand ourselves so that we never again allow this to happen on any scale. I listened to a large part of this book while in the snow and fasting to give me a very , very, very small window of insight. We are all human, so if we can be one thing lets be kind.

Incredible true stories.
Shocking, harrowing, inspiring and heartbreaking.
The level of cruelty by the Third Reich was beyond evil.
My only criticism is that I don't understand why each and every testimony was followed by a serial number. Without these, this book would have been at least an hour or two shorter.
That being said, it's still outstanding.
