Haavara Book Launch in Brazil
When all nations failed, only one group—the Zionist Organization—had the courage to boldly face the Nazi hierarchy to save 60,000 German Jews, transferring them to Jewish Palestine with their assets to build a new life—as Moses had done millennia before. Now the story will be told.
Famed New York Times bestseller Edwin Black, author of IBM and the Holocaust, has authorized this first-ever translation of his critically acclaimed and revelatory book, The Transfer Agreement, published in Brazil as Haavara, by Idea Editora. Haavara is Hebrew for "transfer."
OVERWHELMING. Black’s research is striking in its dimension and scope. The vast uncovering of source material and its extensive use are almost overwhelming. Yoav Gelber, Yad Vashem
