Gestapo
by Edward Crankshaw
This book examines this notorious organization from its origins in the early thirties, through its stranglehold grip on the Nazi state, up to its final maniacal acts of mass murder in the death throes of the Third Reich.
Denying the Holocaust
by Deborah E. Lipstadt
The denial of the Holocaust has no more credibility than the assertion that the earth is flat. Yet there are those who insist that the death of six million Jews in Nazi concentration camps is nothing but a hoax perpetrated by a powerful Zionist conspiracy. Forty years ago, such notions were the province of pseudohistorians who argued that Hitler never meant to kill the Jews, and that only a few hundred thousand died in the camps from disease; they also argued that the Allied bombings of Dresden and other cities were worse than any Nazi offense, and that the Germans were the "true victims" of World War II. For years, those who made such claims were dismissed as harmless cranks operating on the lunatic fringe. But over the past decade they have begun to gain a hearing in respectable arenas, and now, in the first full-scale history of Holocaust denial, Deborah Lipstadt shows how - despite tens of thousands of living witnesses and vast amounts of documentary evidence - this irrational idea not only has continued to gain adherents but has become an international movement, with organized chapters, "independent" research centers, and official publications that promote a "revisionist" view of recent history. One sign of the movement's disturbing resonance is the rise of such figures as the Holocaust denier David Duke to national prominence. Holocaust deniers have also begun to make common cause with radical Afrocentrists such as Leonard Jeffries of New York's City University, who retails racist myths about the Jews; and a recent campaign of ads in college newspapers calling for "open debate" on "so-called facts" about the Holocaust suggests a bold new bid for mainstream intellectual legitimacy.Lipstadt shows how Holocaust denial thrives in the current atmosphere of value relativism, and argues that this chilling attack on the factual record not only threatens Jews but undermines the very tenets of objective scholarship that support our faith in historical knowledge. Thus the movement has an unsuspected power to dramatically alter the way that truth and meaning are transmitted from one generation to another.

NEW - American Axis: Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, and the Rise of the Third Reich
Wallace, Max
St. Martin's Press, 2003. Hardcover. New/New. Item is brand new from publisher overstock. Just a bit of shelf wear but it is new, crisp and unread! May have Publishers remainder mark on the edge just to assure it is not returned to the store. Hardcover with dust jacket. From Publishers Weekly: Although Wallace (Who Killed Kurt Cobain?) is a recipient of Rolling Stone's Award for Investigative Journalism and appears to have done much primary research, he delivers a highly speculative rehash of material handled much better in A. Scott Berg's Lindbergh, Robert Lacey's Ford: The Man and the Machine and such seminal studies as Charles Higham's American Swastika. Wallace tries and fails to sensationalize well-known facts about the parochial American fifth column of the late 1930s and early '40s, a bungling movement of which Ford and Lindbergh were among the most public faces. Wallace sees a conspiracy in what he presents as Ford's pro-Nazi partnership with Lindbergh: a dark and powerful alliance designed to hinder the Allies at every turn. In fact, the two men Orders normally ship in 1-2 business days depending on what time payment is completed. ( more information)

The American Axis (Qty: 19)
Max Wallace
St Martins Press, 2003. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Brand New. 9.50 x 6.30 x 1.50. Brand new. Never read or owned. May have a remainder mark. 29.6 oz. Seeks to reveal how Henry Ford and Charles Lindbergh posed a serious threat to democracy throughout the world, charging them with abuses of power that supported the rise of Hitler and undermined the Allied war effort. An investigative journalist explores the strange political positions of two American heroes prior to World War II. Both Lindbergh and Ford were isolationists (like many others at the time), both displayed pro-Nazi sympathies in the 1930s, and Ford was a virulent anti-semite, according to this account. A finely wrought, careful, and utterly damning case that ought to prompt a reevaluation of both Ford and Lindbergh. -- Kirkus Reviews  (05/15/2003). " . ( more information)
