Meditations of a Holocaust Traveler

by Gerald E. Markle

Markle grasps at the Holocaust, not only from the writings of survivors and academic specialists, but also from his experience as a "tourist" of the Holocaust. He challenges the way we typically think about the Holocaust: them versus us; then versus now; there versus here. He travels across time, place, and subject to ponder the meaning of the Holocaust for contemporary cultures.

Good book

I enjoyed this book, but it is difficult to read at times due to the numerous footnotes. But, the information is interesting, informative, and eye-opening. The author does an excellent job of presenting multiple sides and theories of the holocaust.
