Reviews
[Desbois] is a human bridge between the modern Jewish world and the Catholic Church and a major conduit through which the Holocaust will be remembered., Father Patrick Desbois gives a horrifying account of dimensions of the Holocaust until now undocumented. His Catholic faith, experiences of his own family, the support of the French bishops and the research capacities of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum are enabling him to carry out a work of discovery, of healing and reconciliation. This book is a striking contribution to Christian-Jewish relations. We owe him a debt of enormous proportions., Prompted by compassion and intellectual curiosity, Father Desbois revisited the graves of a million and a half Ukrainian Jews, who were murdered during the German occupation. Combining archival sources and ballistic evidence with the voices of Ukrainian eyewitnesses, Father Desbois delivers a complete, harrowing account of what happened. This book is a triumph of historical exploration, deeply moving and profoundly disturbing., One of the most moving, troubling and insightful books on the Holocaust, or for that matter any other subject, that I have ever read., [T]his modest Roman Catholic priest from Paris, without using much more than his calm voice and Roman collar, has shattered the silence surrounding a largely untold chapter of the Holocaust when Nazis killed 1.5 million Jews in Ukraine from 1941 to 1944., "Part memoir, part prosecutorial brief, The Holocaust by Bullets tells a compelling story in which a priest unconnected by heritage or history is so moved by an injustice he sets out to right a daunting wrong...One might think Holocaust history has been exhausted, but Desbois breaks real news about how an emerging democracy in the New Europe still hasn't emerged from World War II. We have witnessed a decade of forensic excavations documenting genocides in Guatemala, Bosnia and Rwanda, but only now are these same tools being used to find the murdered Jews of Ukraine, thanks in large part to Desbois." - The Miami Herald, Father Patrick Desbois is a French Catholic priest who, virtually single-handedly, has undertaken the task of excavating the history of previously undocumented Jewish victims of the Holocaust in the former Soviet Union, including an estimated 1.5 million people who were murdered in Ukraine., Using a diverse team consisting of a researcher, photographer, interpreter, and ballistics expert, Desbois endeavored to uncover these burial sites and the brutal stories behind them. He uses ample testimony from those who may have witnessed key parts of this brutal process, and he makes some surprising discoveries. The narrative flows because Desbois has such a passion for his subject; he writes simply and well, so that even readers with little initial understanding will learn a lot. The result is an outstanding contribution to Holocaust literature, uncovering new dimensions of the tragedy, and should be on the shelves of even the smallest library. Highly recommended., WINNER OF THE 2008 NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD"Part memoir, part prosecutorial brief,The Holocaust by Bulletstells a compelling story in which a priest unconnected by heritage or history is so moved by an injustice he sets out to right a daunting wrong…One might think Holocaust history has been exhausted, but Desbois breaks real news about how an emerging democracy in the New Europe still hasn't emerged from World War II.

The most treasured of these acts is taking care of the dead because, unlike the others, it cannot be reciprocated. Jewish tradition posits that it is then that the individual most closely emulates God's kindness to humans, which also cannot be reciprocated. Father Patrick Desbois has performed this act of loving kindness not for one person but for hundreds of thousands of people who were murdered in cold blood. He has done so despite the fact that many people would have preferred this story never to be uncovered and others doubted that it ever could be done.

Lipstadt, Ph.D. author ofHistory on Trial: My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier "In this very personal and affecting account of his gradual discovery of the events of the Holocaust in the Ukraine Patrick Desbois, a French priest, gives us a widened perspective of the extraordinarily complex manipulation of the local population by the Nazis, who forcibly requisitioned Ukrainian citizens of all ages to assist in the killings. In village after village, more than 60 years after the horrific events, the inhabitants, many of whom had been children at the time, came forward to bear witness. From the many interviews in the text, it is clear that the personal trauma of forced involvement in the mass executions has never diminished. And indeed, the stories of what they saw takes one's breath away.

  • Shocking Story

    This short book is a must-read for anyone who has an interest in history or wants to know how 1.5 million people disappeared off the face of the earth, murdered one bullet at a time. Father Desbois is allowing the witnesses of terrible criminal acts to finally give their testimony against the killers who mostly went unpunished for their horrific acts and walk among us today. Men and women who, as innocent children, witnessed unspeakable horrors, the memories of which haunt them to this day. Finally, almost seventy years later, they are being allowed to tell their stories and unburden their souls with eye witness accounts of the systemic slaughter of their friends and neighbors, simply because they were Jewish or were deemed "sub-human" by the masters of the Third Reich. These simple people ...

  • Great book on a terrible time

    This is a great book on one of the worst periods of humanity. It shows how the Germans and their local enthusiast collaborators murdered men women children and babies. It shows how in Ukraine alone how there are hundreds and hundreds of mass graves in the woods with no plaques or memorials for these poor people that were murdered in cold blood. The author also did lots of interviews with witnesses who saw their neighbors dragged to these pits and shot. A important book about the worst of humanity which can be difficult to read especially the eye witness accounts.
