Author Advocates Retaining Holocaust
Memorial, Perpetuating History's Facts
Peggy Mann, author of
best-selling novels and
children's books and of her
biography of. Golda Meir, is
a strong believer in per-
petuating the memories of
the Holocaust. She advo-
cates recollection of historic
experiences so that the hor-
which lead to human
should never be for-
n.
This was her message
both at the Book Fair, when
she addressed the Pioneer
Women's special session,
Nov. 6, and in an interview
afterward.
Her newest work,
"Gizelle, Save the Children"
(Everest House) deals with
the Holocaust, with the
heroic efforts to resist where
possible, to give comfort to
children who were among
the chief victims of the
Nazis.
Believing that the lead-
ers in the barbarities
engineered by Hitler and
his cohorts should be ex-
posed, she makes Dr.
ORLEY
and this generation of the
tragedy of Evian, where, in
1937, the Allies, including
the United States, failed to
come to the rescue of the
Jewish victims of Hitlerism.
In. her epilogue to this cur-
rent volume she has a chart
showing the totality of
Jewish losses in the cre-
matoria and the death
camps.
Here she reviews the
failures of the world
powers, the Evian indif-
ference. It is an historic
record. Miss Mann's
comments are condem-
nations of the failures.
"Gizelle, Save the Chil-
dren" has earned highest
commendations from the
most noted literary critics
and authors, including
Robert St. John, Meyer Le-
vin, Gerald Frank and Ruth
Gruber.
Most notable of the
recommendations for this
work to its readers is St.
John's comment in which he
stated:
"This is a mind-searing
story of how four
Hungarian-Romanian girls
survived all the bestialities
their Nazi captors were able
to invent. But it is much
more than a poignantly
written chronicle that reads
like a novel.
"The final 17 pages con-
stitute a new J'accuse in
which Peggy Mann points a
condemnatory finger, just
as Emile Zola did, and with
careful documentation pro-
ves that the six million Jews
died because the self-
concerned nations of the
West, starting with Evian,
gave the Nazis carte
blanche to put their Final
Solution into effect.
"This book should be read
by those who dare to face
ugly truth and by those who
want no repetition of the
Holocaust. Also by dip-
lomats and politicians who
cloak their anti-Semitism
with apologetic verbiage."
