Kurzbeschreibung

Blog post about the life and library of Moses/Mojssej Woskin-Nahartabi. Woskin played a key role in cataloging books at the Nazi-run “Jewish Central Museum” in Prague. He and his family were first imprisoned in Theresienstadt and murdered in Auschwitz in 1944. His private library was scattered in the postwar years. Little by little, the books are turning up all over the world, providing an opportunity to explore his biography.
