Two volumes are arranged in subject chapters covering topics such as antisemitism, contemporary views of the Holocaust and more.

• Sidebars highlighting people or key facts
• About 120 black-and-white illustrations, including photos, documents and maps
• Glossary & timeline

Review:

"Provides an excellent introductory overview of a difficult subject. It is a reasonably priced set that can stand alone. Adding the companion volumes will offer greater depth by bringing firsthand accounts of these events to the students who read them. These books belong in all public and school libraries."
