Non-traditional Haggadah published by the 'Shalom Aleichem Institute' in New York, edited by Shaul Goodman, with impressive illustrations in the form of woodcuts by Sisilia Waldezcki. Many contemporary texts refer to the Holocaust as a sequel to the enslavement of Egypt. New York 1962. Yiddish and Hebrew, and English translation page by page.
An interesting Haggadah that combines direct reference to the events of the Holocaust as a continuation of the enslavement of Egypt, both in the paintings that accompany it and in the text. The painting that accompanies 'Vehi SheAmda' begins with an Egyptian beating a Jew with a whip, continues with the Inquisition, and ends with an SS soldier. Later under the heading: 'Remembrance Ceremony' (with instructions to perform it before the door is opened to the prophet Elijah), an interesting text appears that relates entirely to the memory of the Holocaust. "On this Seder night we remember the six million who perished in the Holocaust, more than Pharaoh kill in Egypt." Later there is a mention of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising with a Somewhat exaggerated reference: 'On the first day of Pesach, the remnants in the Warsaw Ghetto rose up against the enemy as in the days of Judas Maccabaeus ... and they brought redemption to the people of Israel ...' Then an instruction appears to sing the Ghetto Song and 'I Believe'. Among the songs that appear at the end of the Haggadah are songs related to the Holocaust: 'In the Warsaw Ghetto is the Month of Nissan', which describes Seder night in the ghetto under the feeling of terror and fear, and how SS soldiers break into a Jewish house in the middle of Seder night. The "Partisan Anthem" appears, as well as "Zag Maran" which describes the devotion of Jews who prepare matzah in a tunnel under the terror of the Nazis, and more. Some of the songs even had musical notes attached.
