The Gardeners of Salonika by Alan Palmer Pdf

'The Gardeners of Salonika' as Clemenceau contemptuously labelled them, could well be called the forgotten army of the First World War. Yet the Macedonian Campaign was, in Lord Hankey's words, 'the most controversial of all the so-called sideshows.' In his definitive The First World War (1999) Sir John Keegan hailed Alan Palmer for having written 'the best study of the Macedonian Front in English.' Palmer tells the story of this extraordinary polyglot army (it included, at various times, contingents from seven countries) from the first landing at Salonika in 1915 to the peace in 1918. He also illuminates the political and strategic background: the ceaseless argument in London and Paris over the army's future and the maze of Greek politics within which it and its commanders were enclosed. 'A masterly and colourful account of this, the most controversial and neglected sideshow of them all.' Guardian 'Not only a valuable contribution to history, but also an enthralling book' Sunday Times

The Holocaust in Salonika by Steven B. Bowman Pdf

Presents the memoirs of three eminent members of the Jewish community of Salonika. The advocate Yomtov Yacoel (or Giomtōv Giakoel) tried in 1942-early 1943 to negotiate with Nazi civilian representatives on the issue of Jewish forced labor and other issues; he died in 1944 in Auschwitz. Dr. Isaac Aaron Matarasso describes (in 1948) the ghetto of Salonika and deportations to the Nazi camps. His manuscript includes statistics on the deportations from Salonika, the number of Jews from all of Greece who perished in the Holocaust, three investigations into the fate of some Salonikan Jews during the Holocaust, and an investigation into medical experiments in Auschwitz, as well as the study by Mentes M. Molho "Assets of Jews of Salonika" (pp. 212-231). The businessman Salomon Mair Usiel describes (in 1953) the attempts of the Community Council to alleviate the fate of Salonika's Jews in 1942-43; after the war he was accused of collaboration with the Germans. All three authors also describe the first Nazi anti-Jewish measures in Salonika (the census of Jews, confiscations of Jewish property, resettlements, etc.). Pp. 1-22 contain an introduction by Bowman.

The Jewish Community of Salonika by Bea Lewkowicz Pdf

This book is a pioneering study of the often forgotten Sephardi voices of the Holocaust. It is an account of the Sephardi Jewish community of the Greek city of Salonika, which at one point numbered 80,000 members, but which was almost completely annihilated during the German occupation of Greece in the Second World War. Through her systematic series of interviews with the remnants of this once-flourishing community, the author reawakens the communal memory and is able to show how individual identities and memories can be seen to have been shaped by historical experience. She traces the radical demographic and political changes Salonika itself has undergone, in particular the ethnic and religious composition of the city's population, and she interprets the narratives of the Salonikan Jewish survivors in the context of this changing landscape of memory and as part of contemporary Greece. With the vivid power of oral history and ethnography, this book highlights a significant aspect of the Jewish experience.
