The eminent historian Martin Gilbert refers to the Holocaust as “the most horrible of all horrors”. It was so brutal, painful, and sinister that it is difficult to read about it, let alone view pictures. People avoid pain, if possible.

It is difficult for individuals; even those directly involved in the Holocaust, to truly grasp the magnitude and the hideousness of the events that occured.   The truth must be remembered, recorded and told.
