11404X1 First Edition (unstated. University of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame: 2001. 100 pages. Hardcover with dustjacket. Very good condition. For more than fifty years, Giacomo Debenedetti's October 16, 1943 has been considered one of the best and most accurate accounts of the shockingly brief and efficient roundup of more than one thousand Roman Jews from the oldest Jewish community in Europe for the gas chambers in Auschwitz. Eight Jews, written in response to testimony about the Ardeatine Cave Massacres of March 24, 1944, offers insights into that grisly horror and into assumptions of racial equality.
