Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. In Hebrew and English. 8 1/4 x 5 ¾ in.; 210 x 145 mm. Original paper wrappers emblazoned with prominent red white and blue insignia of the U.S. Third Army, a blue disc with red border, the blue area bearing throughout a white capital letter "A." Most of the text in this haggadah is the work of Yosef Dov Sheinson - a survivor of the Kovno Ghetto, who augmented the traditional Passover Seder service with words that emanated from the anguished souls of the survivors themselves. There is also an English introduction by Rabbi Abraham Klausner, the military chaplain who conducted the two Seders held in Munich's Deutsches Theater restaurant on April 15 and 16, 1946, and for which the Haggadah was specifically created. The haunting woodcuts by Miklos Adler (ben Benjamin) marry the words of the traditional text to images that call forth the unspeakable horrors to which the Seder's participants had so recently been subjected. It is likely that Rabbi Klausner was also responsible for the inclusion of the page receding the Hebrew opening of the Haggadah. Conspicuously set off by the palpable absence of any other text is a stark paraphrase of the most famous words of the Haggadah: "We were slaves to Hitler in Germany." Specially printed for Seder Service for Allied soldiers and others under the command of Lt. General Truscott and held in the Deutsches Theatre Restaurant. Relationship between the horror of the Destruction of European Jewry (vividly portrayed in the illustrations) and the Festival of Liberation strongly felt; viz. they felt very close to all that which was narrated. Pharaoh and Egypt gave way to Hitler and Germany. Ptham and Rameses faded beneath fresh memories of Buchenwald and Dacau." See A.
