In April-May 1940 the German Wehrmacht invaded Northern and Western Europe. The subsequent occupation of Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, and France brought the Jewish population of these countries – both established residents and refugees – under German control. From autumn 1941 in Luxembourg and from spring/summer 1942 in Belgium, the Netherlands and occupied France, Jews were required to wear the ‘Jewish star’ and many were subjected to forced labour. By mid-1942, deportations from Luxembourg and France to the ghettos and extermination camps in occupied Eastern Europe had already begun, while in the other occupied countries they were imminent. In April 1942 Alfred Oppenheimer, the Jewish elder in Luxembourg, wrote: ‘A dreadful fate hangs over our community again. The worst that can happen has now happened and the Poland transport is a certainty.’ This volume covers Norway and Western Europe during the period from the German invasion to mid 1942 (developments in Denmark for this period are documented in vol. 12) and records how Jews in these parts of Europe were excluded from society and stripped of their rights, livelihoods, and property. Letters and diary entries by the persecuted Jews detail life under German occupation and the attempts by many Jews to emigrate. The sources show how Jewish organizations sought to alleviate the impact of persecution, and how the German occupiers and local collaborators targeted Jews with increasingly stringent measures and clamped down on any form of resistance.

During the Second World War, it is hard to imagine a situation where the British High Command could think that one of the only ways they could attack Hitler was to send ten canoeists with limpet mines to paddle one hundred miles up the Gironde estuary, in the middle of winter, in an attempt to sink German blockade ships in Bordeaux harbor. Yet this is precisely what happened in 1942. The man who gave the go-ahead for the audacious commando raid--Lord Louis Mountbatten, head of Combined Operations--fully anticipated that all ten men would die in the attempt. Mountbatten wasn't far wrong--two ripped their collapsible canoes as they were manhandling them out of the submarine; two drowned when their canoes capsized entering the Gironde estuary; and a further six were captured by the Germans and later executed. By complete chance, the two canoeists who managed to escape--Major "Blondie" Hasler and Marine Bill Sparks--stumbled into the arms of the French resistance. Once in their care, Hasler and Sparks made their way across France and into Spain, crossing the Pyrenees in the company (though they did not know it) of a Gestapo agent intent on bringing down the resistance network. Operation Suicide is the first account of this enthralling raid for over fifty years. In utilizing primary source material, including detailed German records captured by the British in 1944 (which remained censored until 1976), Robert Lyman brings to life one of the most courageous and dramatic events to take place in the darkest days of the Second World War.

This Book ‘Dr B.R. Ambedkar : True Leader, not a false God’ is written as a rejoinder to Mr. Arun Shourie’s book ‘Worshipping False Gods’ inwhich Mr. Shourie had made various allegations against Dr Ambedkar. The author has tried to give point-to-point rebuttal of Mr. Shourie insinuation against Dr. Ambedkar.
The book tries to cover Dr. Ambedkar’s work from 1932 to 1953—Poona Pact to his resignation from Nehru's Cabinet; his struggle for political and social empowerment of his people(depressed class) and confrontation with Mahatma Gandhi over issue of reservation for depressed class; his tenure as member of Executive Council of Viceroy and his attitude towards Quit India Movement, and finally his work in the formation of the Constitution as Chairman of Drafting Committee. A separate chapter is also added, which is summary of his seminal work‘Thoughts on Pakistan’ to dispel the wrong notion that he was in support of demand for Pakistan. Dr. Ambedkar’s speech while resigning from the Nehru Cabinet is also added as last chapter to highlight his commitment to Hindu Code Bill,which he termed as biggest reform of Hindu society and his frustration and anguish over his failure to get it passed in Parliament.
