Description

Roman Vishniac's poignant and beautiful images of Jewish life before the war form an unforgettable document of a lost civilization, depicting eight different communities, each of which is described in a short text enhanced by passages from Vishniac's diaries. The pictures are warm, peaceful, and uttterly heartbreaking.--The Boston Globe. 141 photos.
