The Holocaust in Salonika: Eyewitness Accounts (Bowman/Benmayor)

The accounts presented here are three of the basic sources for the post war memory of the Holocaust among the Salonikan Jews. They constitute the first official witness of those tragic years supplemented in succeeding years by a continuing current of personal memoirs in half a dozen languages. Yomtov Yacoel was the lawyer for the Community and liaison with the Nazi civilian representatives Dr. Max Merten and Dr. Muller. He maintained contact with Jewish and Christian political leaders in Athens. Dr. Matarasso was the post war physician for the survivors in Salonika. His report includes the earliest eyewitnesses stories of the fate of the Jews in Auschwitz including the medical experiments. An Appendix presents the constitution for the reorganization of the Community issued under German order in 1941.
