Kaufmann (1896-1984) relates his own personal story and that of the Riga ghetto, including the decimation of the ghetto by successive massacres, in which the author's family also perished, and in which Latvian militia played a leading role; everyday life; The book contains a description of the death of the great historian Semyon Dubnov in the Riga ghetto. The problematic relations with the German Jews housed in a separate part of the ghetto; the labor details; German and Jewish functionaries; and an aborted attempt to organize resistance. also relates briefly the story of the extermination of other Jewish communities in Latvia. Describes Kaiserwald, in which the author was interned, and other Latvian camps. With the approach of the Soviet army, the inmates were evacuated to Stutthof; from there Kaufmann was sent to a labor camp at Magdeburg, a satellite of Buchenwald; and finally on a death march to Sachsenhausen and beyond, until he was liberated. The author says nothing about his background; he seems to have been a person of some influence in the community because he was appointed head of various workshops both in the ghettos and the camps and later was active in the DP camp and a founder of the organization of Latvian Holocaust survivors..
"This book is dedicated to my dearly beloved wife Franka,
and my son Arthur, as well as all my relatives who were murdered."
The communities of our innocent brothers and sisters, parents and children,
who perished in the chambers of hell and the crematoria of the damned
Moloch-Hitler or died in other ways will remain in Israel's memory forever.
These rivers of spilled blood will seethe and flood the world with the eternal
sign of Cain until the evil that produced such destruction has been rooted out.
May these few words be the flowers on their grave!
Honor their memory!
The author
The Association of Liberated Latvian Jews in the US-occupied zone of Germany warmly welcomes the publication of their comrade Max Kaufmann's book, in which he recounts the tragedy of Latvian Jewry, which was once so splendid and flourishing. The decision to write such a work and the author's creative power are equally admirable.
The homeland of Latvian Jewry is soaked not only with the blood of innocent Latvian Jewish men, women and children; in addition, countless transports of Jewish men, women and children from nearly all the countries of Europe were murdered on Latvian soil by the bestial, cowardly German and Latvian Nazi bandits.
The work of our comrade Max Kaufman is the first to recount, more or less comprehensively and objectively, the sufferings and tragic destruction of the splendid Jewry of Latvia, and to inform the world about the role played by the local Latvian population, which largely shares the blame for this tragedy with the rapacious and bestial Nazi bandits.
We are absolutely convinced that Max Kaufmann's work will receive a very strong response and that the world will at last understand the depth of the tragedy that has affected, among others, the small band of surviving Latvian Jews.

of Latvian Jews in Germany
The martyrology and the destruction of the Jewish community in Latvia is connected with the fate of a part of the Jews of Vilna, who were brought to Riga on 29 September 1943 after the liquidation of the Vilna ghetto and who shared with the Latvian Jews the final path of martyrdom and all the stages of destruction.
The Kaiserwald concentration camp in Riga, with its divisions - the HKP, Strazdumuiza, TWL, HVL, ABA, Dünawerke, Lenta, Meteor, the Balast dam etc. - and, later on, the concentration camps in Germany - Stutthof, Magdeburg, Burggraben, Riben etc. - are the milestones along the cruel, thorny path walked by the Jews of Latvia and Vilna.
The book Churbn Lettland, which describes the destruction of the once-splendid Jewish community in Latvia, is also part of the history of the destruction of Vilna Jewry. A specific and precise picture is provided in the descriptions of the Stutthof and Buchenwald concentration camps, in which I lived through difficult times together with the author.
The author, Max Kaufmann, is the only person to date who has told the story of churbn Lettland.
We salute him and hope that his work will be well-received.
