On the edge of destruction : Jews of Poland between the two World Wars / Celia S. Heller ; foreword by Nathan Glazer.

The Holocaust virtually destroyed the Jews of Poland, once a community of more than three million, constituting ten percent of the population, and the oldest continuous Jewish community in a European country. On the Edge of Destruction looks at the rich and complex nature of that community and the tremendous pressures under which it lived before the tragic end.
