"The book is a fascinating contribution to the study of migration, photography, and the ways in which German-Jewish self-understanding was practiced and, critically, how it changed overtime. ... Sulzener's book remains an important piece of scholarship for students and scholars interested in migration and Holocaust history. The work also serves as a clear case for the importance of using vernacular photography as a source in its own right." (SarahWobick-Segev, H-Soz-Kult, hsozkult.de, October 9, 2020)
