Summary:
"This ground-breaking book exposes a taboo aspect of Holocaust history: the sexual abuse of children. The Nazi's genocidal brutality facilitated the abuse of children, in addition to targeting them for murder. After the war, they were again betrayed by those who discounted their experiences, and by Holocaust scholars who refuse to acknowledge their stories or give credence to their memories."--Page 4 of cover.
