Publisher's Note
Described by the London "Sunday Times" as, "the color film of Nazi Germany after years of black and white, " "I Will Bear Witness" has been heralded as one of the most courageous and remarkable books of our time. The second volume of this extraordinary work covers the worst years of the war, including the Final Solution and the advance of Allied troops.

Industry Reviews
"Never has a victim observed his victimization with greater insight. Never has a victim described the apparatus of state-inflicted persecution with greater fidelity. Never has the isolation of living in a world that wishes one's people dead been rendered with greater pathos. Every act of cruelty as well as every gesture of kindness is scrupulously recorded."
Nation - Silvia Tennenbaum (11/16/1998)

"For the next generation of historian of modern Germany, Klemperer's diaries will be required reading. One does not have to read more than a few pages to be impressed by their authenticity and by the author's dedication, honesty, and energy, to say nothing of the courage that sustained him in his task."
New York Review of Books - Gordon A. Craig (12/03/1998)

"Klemperer turns out to be a journalist of rare perception. He has produced an incomparable record of daily life under the Nazis."
Frankel

"A worrier and a pessimist to the end, [Klemperer] never knew that he had written a book a great as any he had ever read."
London Review of Books - Thomas Powers (09/21/2000)

"Reading Klemperer's diaries is a harrowing, but addictive, experience."
Los Angeles Times Book Review (12/03/2000)
