"Saidel's goal is to make visible a previously ignored aspect of
women's Holocaust history. . . . In bringing to light the
experiences of the women of Ravensbrück concentration camp, Saidel
adds to our knowledge of Jewish survival in the genocidal
conditions created by the Nazis."--Rochelle G. Ruthchild, Women's
Review of Books
"Thanks to Rochelle Saidel's sensitive interviews and meticulous
research, together with the many previously unpublished photographs
and haunting drawings by the inmates, this book will increase
public recognition of Ravensbrück's victims and survivors. With
this, The Jewish Women of Ravensbrück Concentration Camp takes its
honorable place in the growing genre of gender study of the
Holocaust."--Eetta Prince-Gibson, Jerusalem Post
