First edition, first impression.

Otto Muneles, rabbi, hebraist and historian (1894-1967), was descended from an old Jewish family in Prague, records of which date to the sixteenth century. Muneles lost his entire family in the Holocaust and himself survived the Terezín concentration camp, where he catalogued Hebrew books that had been confiscated from libraries by the Nazis. After World War II he was employed as an expert at the Jewish Museum in Prague, where he catalogued books and archival holdings, spending the rest of his life documenting the evidence for the lost Jewish communities of Bohemia and Moravia.
