    Escape from Sobibor

    Carl R. Schulkin Pembroke Hill School In the "New Afterword" to the 1995 reprint of Escape From Sobibor, Richard Rashke makes explicit what was already implicit in the original 1982 edition. He forthrightly challenges historians of the Holocaust to reexamine a "flawed premise" of much of their writing. Unconsciously accepting the flawed premise that "if the Nazis...did not give it much significance, it wasn’t significant," Rashke argues, historians have distorted the nature of the Jewish
