Announcement!

The first of two issues on The Holocaust on Film from Film & History
will be mailed out this week to the four corners of the earth.  The full
Table of Contents will be posted on the web site on Tuesday, 28 May

32.1 deals with The Holocaust in Feature Films.  The next issue,
32.2 will move on to The Holocaust in Documentary Films. We received
many, many deserving articleson The Holocaust, many of which will
be published in a 2001 CD-ROM Annual.
