Annotated Bibliography

As part of the Survivor Project, you've been asked to put together an annotated bibliography. I know this is new for some of you, so I've included an example here. Remember to identify the source, and evaluate it by including a few details about WHY you chose to do your research from this source. Example: (1) The Museum of Tolerance, A Simon Wiesenthal Center Museum. Retrieved from: http://www.museumoftolerance.com I chose to use this website because the Museum of Tolerance was founded by the Holocaust survivor I have chosen to study. Simon Wiesenthal created this museum to house Holocaust artifacts, and to be a place where people can come to hear survivor stories. There is a very detailed link to a resource providing a vivid description of Mr. Wiesenthal's life before, during and after the Holocaust.
