The Holocaust ChronicleThe Holocaust Chronicle: A History in Words and Pictures recounts the anguishing story of the most terrible crime of the 20th century. During World War II, six million Jews--as well as other targeted groups including Poles, the handicapped, and homosexuals--were systematically murdered by Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany and its collaborators. Although the weight and heft of The Holocaust Chronicle cannot capture the immensity of its subject, the book's 768 pages suggest that the Holocaust is a topic that must be openly confronted. Written and fact-checked by top scholars, the chronicle offers:
