“Tapestry of Hope is an important reference work for teachers of
the Holocaust in secondary schools and colleges…this anthology is a
complex answer to the often-asked question: Why did so many
survivors of the Holocaust wait so long before telling their
stories?”
–The Globe and Mail
“…a timely addition to Holocaust resources.”
–Quill & Quire
“…very useful in a classroom situation when teaching about the
Holocaust because a teacher has a large number of excerpts from
which to choose… Tapestry of Hope has good educational value for
both a history and a language arts program. Highly
Recommended.”
–CM Magazine
