Klappentext zu „Who Speaks for the Vanquished? “
Who Speaks for the Vanquished? tells the story of the growth of Zionist influence and the development of Zionist policies among American Jews during the years 1933-45. Utilizing primary sources of Zionist organizations and leaders of the period, Wells offers a documentary history that speaks for itself. The New York Times' coverage of the breaking events in Austria and Poland is shown to be in stark contrast with the Zionist press. Interwoven with these accounts are his personal reminiscences of his family who perished, and of his own struggle for survival in Poland. In the light of the historical record Wells questions the right of Zionism to speak as the authoritative voice for the vanquished.

Pressezitat
"A number of books and articles have been written on the Holocaust, but Dr. Leon Wells' 'Who Speaks for the Vanquished?' stands out as the most revealing and challenging piece of work... This book is highly recommended for both those who live in countries where oppression is the order of the day and for those willing to act as agents of change in an oppressive situation." (Lizo D. Jafta, The Federal Theological Seminary of South Africa)"Wells' extraordinary book intersperses personal memories with his documentary r esearch - a risk technique that succeeds. Moving beyond the level of footnoted fingerpointing, Wells carries us on a journey back to the hell from which he emerged. Thus, we are compelled to listen closely to his wrenching chronicle of perverted priorities." (The Philadelphia Inquirer)
"The study commands attention because it suggests the need for reevaluation of w idely accepted ideas." (Rachel Feldhay Brenner, Holocaust and Genocide Studies)
