       Publication Society book"-Title page verso.

520    "Stolen Words is an epic story about the largest 
       collection of Jewish books in the world--tens-of millions 
       of books that the Nazis looted from European Jewish 
       families and institutions. Nazi soldiers and civilians 
       emptied Jewish communal libraries, confiscated volumes 
       from government collections, and stole from Jewish 
       individuals, schools, and synagogues. Early in their 
       regime, the Nazis burned some books in spectacular 
       bonfires, but most they saved, stashing the literary loot 
       in castles, abandoned mine shafts, and warehouses 
       throughout Europe. It was the largest and most extensive 
       book-looting campaign in history. After the war, Allied 
       forces discovered these troves of stolen books but quickly
       found themselves facing a barrage of questions. How could 
       the books be identified? Where should they go? Who had the
       authority to make such decisions? Eventually, the army 
       turned the books over to an organization of leading Jewish
       scholars called Jewish Cultural Reconstruction, Inc.--
       whose chairman was the acclaimed historian Salo Baron, and
       whose on-the-ground director was the philosopher Hannah 
       Arendt--with the charge to establish restitution 
       protocols. Stolen Words is the story of how a free 
       civilization decides what to do with the material remains 
       of a world torn asunder, and how those remains connect 
       survivors with their past. It is the story of Jews 
       struggling to understand the new realities of their post-
       Holocaust world and of Western society's gradual 
       realization of the magnitude of devastation wrought by 
       World War II. sMost of all, it is the story of people --of
       Nazi leaders, ideologues, and Judaica experts; of Allied 
       soldiers, scholars, and scoundrels; and of Jewish 
       communities, librarians, and readers around the world"--
