Description

Profiling some of the principal architects and chief executioners of the Holocaust, this chronicle offers a chilling portrait of the abject cruelty of the Nazi regime. The stories of such infamous individuals as Adolf Eichmann, Franz Stangl, Hermine Braunsteiner, and Josef Mengele put a face on the infamous crimes committed by Hitler and his henchmen. As a counterpoint, the book also examines individuals who dedicated their lives to finding erstwhile Nazis and bringing them to justice, including Simon Wiesenthal, Mossad director Isser Harel, and Beata Klarsfeld. Final sections provide a chronology of the Holocaust and information on the Nuremburg Trials.
