This book will continue the important work of inspiring ethers to pursue that same goal, and will provide them with the understanding upon which any such pursuit must be based." ~SIMON WIESENTHAL. "Robert Wistrich's Hitler and the Holocaust is a concise yet distinctly authoritative history of the Holocaust. . Anyone who wants to read one book on the state of our understanding of Hitler and the Holocaust as we enter the new century would be well advised to begin with Wistrich. Never polemical and always meticulous, restrained in his prose and fair in his analysis, once again he displays a mastery of his subject and full command of even the most recent of scholarship." ~MICHAEL BERENBAUM, author of The World Must Know, former director of the Research Institute of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, and former president of the Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation. Hitler and the Holocaust is the product of a lifetime's work by one of the world's foremost authorities on the history of anti~Semitism and modern Jewry. Robert S. Wistrich begins by reckoning with Europe's long history of violence against the Jews, and how that tradition manifested itself in Central and Eastern Europe in the early twentieth century. He looks at the forces that shaped Hitler's belief in a "satanic Jewish power" that must be eradicated, and the process by which, once Hitler gained power, the Nazi regime tightened the noose around Germany's Jews. He deals with many key questiens, such as when Hitler's plans for mass genocide were finalized, the relationship between the Holocaust and the Second World War, and the mechanisms of authority by which power~and guilt~flowed out from the Nazi inner circle to "ordinary Germans," and other Europeans. He explains the infernal workings of the death machine, the nature of Jewish and other resistance, and the tragic story of collaboration and indifference across Europe and America, and in the Church. Finally, Professor Wistrich discusses the abiding legacy of the Nazi Holocaust, and the lessons that must be drawn from it. A work of commanding authority and insight, Hitler and the Holocaust is an indelible contribution to the literature of history.…
