Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
A series of personal stories from some of the non-Jews, including gypsies, political and religious activists, the physically challenged, and other 'undesirables,' who were persecuted but escaped the fate of the five million Gentiles murdered by the Nazis.



Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - A great reminder that the Holocaust wasn't just targeting Jews.
This wonderful book is a collection of short biographies of people who were persecuted by the Nazis but were not Jewish. These stories will touch your heart and help us to keep the story of the horrors of WWII alive.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - No one has a monopoly on suffering
It would seem that the world has been held hostage thinking one group or another deserves more because they have suffered more than anyone else. Our history books have misinformed us and downright lied about the experiences of so many people as if they did not exist. When we speak of genocide the very first thing ringing in our ears is the Holacaust in Germany and what happened to 6 million Jews. What about the 20 million Armenians on April 24,1919 (or thereabouts). What about 9 million Africans drowned in the Middle Passage. How about the annihilation and almost termination of the indigineous people of the Americas. The importance of this book lies in taking a factual, very first person, look at the other resident citizens of Germany who were also issued a death penalty under Nazi rule. Hopefully knowing the world wide experience of Genocide (still going on), we as people of the world can stop it.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - A review from a 12 year old
I thought this was an amazing book. It talks about all the others out there who were affected by Hitler, showing it was not only the Jews who were affected and killed, but many others, like the homosexuals, gypsies, ect. The book offers many different opinions and people, and I thought it was an amazing and saddening book.



Rated by buyers 2 out of 5 stars - Pity
Pity this book is out of print, for it is worth remembering that many millions of non Jews were enslaved and persecuted by the Nazis, the majority of whom were (as recently scholarship confirms) Ukrainians.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - my review
The Other Victims was a book of real life stories from the Holocaust. I liked this book because it tells how people had to go into hiding, how they had no freedom, and how they fought back. The book is mainly about people trying to escape from Germany to America or a safe country. My favorite chapter was Bubili: a young Gypsy's fight for survival. Once I started to read this book I couldn't put it down. The reason I couldn't put this book down was it was all true. I thought it was hard to believe it actually happened. The people were killed because of their religion, color, looks, and trying to stop the wrong that was going on.
