A preface by Serge Klarsfeld (dated December 2001) states "More than ten years ago, we embarked upon a campaign to find the lists of the Jews deported from Hungary. In the meantime, the Ministry of Defence in Budapest turned over to us the card index of more than 45, 000 Jews incorporated into the Labour Battalions of the Hungarian Army, most of whom perished. Thanks to the high quality and excellent, unrelenting efforts of Dr. Gavriel Bar-Shaked, 6 volumes in the Nevek-Names series have already been published, including 2 volumes of "the Men in the Forced Labour Battalions, the Deported Jews of the County of Hajdu, and the Hungarian Jewish Women Interned in the Camp of Stutthof" (2 volumes). Today we bring to light for the first time the name of the deported Jews of the county of Zala. We continue in our task, whose necessity is self-explanatory, even if the Assoication of the Hungarian Jews in Israel (Szol a Kakas Mar) is now silent, and we are now alone in our undertaking".

Language and Other Notes:
- Text in English. Introduction in English and Hungarian.
- An introduction to the text by Dr. Gavriel Bar-Shaked states "In 1941, the total number of the Jews in Zala was about 7,027. The statistical trend (10,362 Jews in 1920, 8,226 Jews in 1930) shows a steady decline of about 1,200-1,600 souls in every decade, so that in 1944 the estimated number of the Jews if the County should have been between 6,200-6,500. Our book contains 6,200 names, thus approximating reality. On May 4, 1944, the Deputy-Prefect of the county issued an order concerning the establishment of ghettoes [...] According to this, the Jews of Zala County were concentrated in five temporary ghettoes: Zalaegerszeg, Tapolca, Keszthely, Zalaszentgrót, and Sümeg. The concentration of the Jews was based on a nominal list [...] prepared by every Jewish community, and verified by the Hungarian Gendarmerie. The lists were completed in the first week of April 1944, according to the order of the Ministry of the Interior, on April 4, 1944 [...] The Jews of Zala were deported to Auschwitz. The first transport left Nagykanizsa (where a special internment camp was established fro the Jews living close to the former Yugoslavian border) on May 18, 1944; the deportation of the other ghettoes via Zalaegerszeg was carried out on Jul 4-6. As everywhere in Hungary, the Jewish property was confiscated immediately. According to an order of the Deputy-Prefect issued on June 23, 1944 [...] the action had to be finished by the end of June, before the deportation from Zalaegerszeg to Auschwitz."
