She’repith hapletah – the Saved Remnant, the “few who escaped,” they were known. The Final Solution during the Holocaust was supposed to eradicate the Jewish population of Europe, literally roots and all, and it nearly succeeded. In the spring after World War II, in 1946, a group of these displaced persons met in Munich, Germany, to celebrate one of the most poignant and meaningful Passover Seders in history. In normal times, the theme of the holiday is the escaped from servitude and darkness, and looking with hope and deliverance in better times. Of course, this year, those themes would take on added meaning. The Haggadah (meaning “retelling”) used at that Seder reflected that in both traditional and novel ways.Our book actually begins almost exactly a half century later, in the spring of 1996, when a Brandeis University professor named Saul Touster was going through one of his father’s files, when a most unusual booklet fell out. Beneath a simple letter A enclosed in red and blue circles were the words “Passover Service,” with the year 1946. Within the covers Dr. Touster found pages with Hebrew type surrounded with borders that contained striking images contrasting the symbols of the Holocaust with others of the Promised Land by a Polish survivor named Yosef Dov Scheinson, interspersed with striking woodcuts depicting the toil of enslavement by a Hungarian artist, Miklos Adler, all supplementing the usual visual representation one would expect to find in a Haggadah.One of the most dramatic pages is dominated by a large Hebrew letter Beth, symbolic of the phrase “Bechol dor” (In the beginning…), the very first words of Genesis, the first book of the Torah. Here it also stands for “Brause Bad” (shower bath), as well as “brichal” (fleeing west), two themes that recur throughout this Haggadah. Other border designs incorporate images of the Promised Land and the Holocaust – on the same page! “We were slaves to Hitler in Germany,” our Haggadah opens, before going into the Seder, the order of the Passover observance. Ancestors were forced to make bricks for Pharaoh under bondage in Egypt, but the same trowels shown would (it was hoped) be used to create the foundations for new homes in the Holy Land.The high quality of the A Haggadah is fascinating in its own right, but Dr. Touster’s insightful commentary provides an invaluable context, making this excellent volume much more than a coffee table book that is pretty to look at. Much more, it preserves – through retelling – the precious memory of a history that must be told, when Passover was truly a t’shuvah, a redemption, coming home, a passing from darkness to light.

Not a traditional haggadah by any means but a very interesting book as history none the less. If you are a history buff with an interest in the WW2 era, or a collector of haggadot, put this one into your collection.I have owned (or given away or traded) a LOT of books over my lifetime. This is one book that will stay in my collection!

For anyone who is interested in either Passover, or the history of the Jews during and after the Holocaust, I recommend this book highly. It is an addition to the traditional service, and does not have a format of a start to finish Haggadah. It is more for historical value and understanding.

I bought a used copy and was so very pleased. The artwork is taken from the actual haggadah. It is impressive, a wonderful addition to any library or haggadot collection.

The content of the book is vivid and very powerful. The book itself, as printed is disappointing. Somehow I expected it to be rougher and less like a 21st century printed book. I had expected a simulation of an old book, with "woodcut" pictures and old type,

This is a wonderful book that is a guiding example of the ability for the Jews of the Holocaust to survive the incomprehensible and still not give up on their faith.

I didn't know what to expect. I wanted it for an historic document and for that it is so sad but perfect. We must not forget.

Excellent and came on time.
