Erased Vanishing Traces of Jewish Galicia in Present-day Ukraine

"Bartov, a leading Holocaust scholar, discovers that to make sense of the heartbreaking events of the war, he must first grapple with the complex interethnic relationships and conflicts that have existed there for centuries. Visiting twenty Ukrainian towns, he recreates the histories of the vibrant Jewish and Polish communities who once lived there - and describes what is left today following their brutal and complete destruction."--BOOK JACKET.
