This a quick read, because it has loads of pictures: photos of the ghetto and its inhabitants, and also pictures of artifacts such as ration cards, work certificates, yellow stars, etc. It's more like a museum exhibit than a simple book. Because of the format I think young people would be able to get something out of the book too, although it is clearly written for adults. Certainly it probably has the most information on the Kovno/Kaunas ghetto all in one place.
Both researchers and the ordinary person interested in the Holocaust would enjoy this.
Bonus: pages from the diary of Ilya Gerber are printed in this book; you can read additional extracts from the diary in Alexandra Zapruder's Salvaged Pages: Young Writers' Diaries of the Holocaust.… (mehr)
