The Catholic Bishops of Europe and the Nazi Persecutions of Catholics and Jews
Lapomarda, Vincent A.
The Catholic Bishops of Europe and the Nazi Persecutions of Catholics and Jews [electronic resource]. - Lewiston : Edwin Mellen Press, 2012. - 1 online resource (330 p.)
Description based upon print version of record.
The book describes the role way some Catholic Bishops attempted to resist the Nazi extermination of the Jews and other populations during the Holocaust. It shows that many Catholic Bishops throughout Europe risked life and limb sheltering Jews and other victims. While other scholars forward different opinions on the matter, Lapomarda's analysis of Pope Pius XII uses factual evidence to show the Pope acted against the Nazis' treatment of the Jews, and facilitated massive movements against the final solution.
