| Talk to the hand! This
unusual sculpture, top, is actually a monument to the workers who constructed the
mountain highway through Bucovina. Above, a panoramic view of the valley from La
Palma. (June/July 1998) |

| Radauti (rah-dah-OOTS)
is a charming village located in a valley not far from the Ukraine border. Bogdana Church,
the oldest stone church in Bucovina, built in the 14th century, stands behind a white
statue of Prince Bodgan, who built it, below. (June/July 1998) |

| A view of the main
commercial street, and a common sight in the countryside: a Gypsy horse cart. (June/July

| For a history of the
deportation of the Jews from Radauti and the Bucovina region during the Shoah, we
recommend the following books: The
Holocaust in Romania: The destruction of Jews and Gypsies by the Antonescu regime,
1940-1944 by Radu Ioanid
Shattered!
50 Years of Silence: Voices of Romania and Transnistria by Felicia Steigman-Carmelly
Another good book on the subject is Jagendorf's
Foundry by Siegfried Jagendorf.
Although some of
these books are no longer in print, they available at most libraries, or you can find a copy through
ABE Books . |
