The Holocaust

Laurence Rees's book provides a detailed exploration of the Holocaust, emphasizing that while hatred of Jews was central to Nazi ideology, understanding the event requires considering the broader context of Nazi plans to kill millions of non-Jews.

The book chronicles the series of escalations that led to the Holocaust, highlighting the absence of a single overarching blueprint for the atrocities.

Through a chronological narrative, Rees integrates eyewitness accounts with the latest research to create a compelling and authoritative history.
