Published by Pimlico.
1st thus
2001.
Nearly fine condition.
When Hitler announced the 'complete annihilation of the Jews in 1942, the Allies heard but, astonishingly, they did not listen. In 1944, Allied reconnaissance pilots repeatedly photographed Auschwitz, these were overlooked by the Allies and routinely filed in government archives and not examined until 1979. Churchill himself ordered feasibility studies for air strikes on Auschwitz, the RAF did nothing, eventually they passed the buck to the Americans, who also did nothing. Pictorial cardwraps. B/w photos. ISBN: 0712668063. A lovely copy.
