Richard Bolchover asks: 'Why was it that the Holocaust made such little impact on Anglo-Jewry; why in hindsight do British Jews appear insensitive?' These are painful questions for a young Jewish scholar, but Bolchover pursues them unflinchingly ... a poignant and important contribution to Holocaust studies.'

Richard Bolchover charts the response of leading Jews and of Jewish organisations to the unfolding tragedy of Europe's Jews. In the process he raises controversial questions about the Anglo-Jewish community's priorities, and the way in which it organised itself. This study of Jewish political thoughts and culture marks a serious and provocative departure from the traditionally dominant trend in Anglo-Jewish historiography.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Part I.
