  • Author : Robert Jan van Pelt
  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2016-03-23
  • ISBN : 0253028841
  • Pages : 593 pages

Download or read book The Case for Auschwitz written by Robert Jan van Pelt and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From January to April 2000 historian David Irving brought a high-profile libel case against Penguin Books and Deborah Lipstadt in the British High Court, charging that Lipstadt's book, Denying the Holocaust (1993), falsely labeled him a Holocaust denier. The question about the evidence for Auschwitz as a death camp played a central role in these proceedings. Irving had based his alleged denial of the Holocaust in part on a 1988 report by an American execution specialist, Fred Leuchter, which claimed that there was no evidence for homicidal gas chambers in Auschwitz. In connection with their defense, Penguin and Lipstadt engaged architectural historian Robert Jan van Pelt to present evidence for our knowledge that Auschwitz had been an extermination camp where up to one million Jews were killed, mainly in gas chambers. Employing painstaking historical scholarship, van Pelt prepared and submitted an exhaustive forensic report that he successfully defended in cross-examination in court.

One morning, seven years ago, Peter Griffiths, an intern for a Member of Parliament, disappeared without a trace from Parliament Hill—one of the most secure buildings in Canada. At the time, he had been carrying a politically sensitive document, one of interest to the CIA. Now, his sister has requested her brother be declared legally dead, so with a multimillion-dollar insurance policy on the line, Peter’s insurance company wants to investigate his disappearance before they settle the claim. Specializing in missing persons cases, Baker Somerset has been hired to discover what happened to Peter. As she investigates, she uncovers a sex and blackmail scandal involving some of Ottawa’s most powerful people. Bodies begin to pile up, and Baker soon finds out that if she continues her search she and those she loves might just disappear too . . .

Book Literature and Justice in Mid Twentieth Century Britain

Download or read book Literature and Justice in Mid Twentieth Century Britain written by Victoria Stewart and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-23 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature and Justice in Mid Twentieth Century Britain: Crime and War Crimes examines how ideas about crime, criminality, and judicial procedure that had developed in a domestic context influenced the representation and understanding of war crimes trials, victims of war crimes, and war criminals in post-Second World War Britain. The representation of Belsen concentration camp and the subsequent British-run trial of its personnel are a particular focal point. Drawing on a range of source material including life-writing, journalism, and detective fiction, as well as criminological and sociological works from this period, this book explains why the fate of the Jews and other victims of the Nazis was sometimes brought starkly into focus and sometimes marginalised in public discourse at this period. What remain are glimpses of the events now called the Holocaust, but glimpses that can be as powerful and as meaningful as more direct or explicit representations.

  • Pages : 439 pages

Download or read book Murderers Row written by Robin Odell and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-10-30 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Criminoloogist Robin Odell has compiled this gruesome gallery of cases from all over the world, revealing the growth in serial slayings, contract killings and middle-class murders and investigating what motivates people to commit the ultimate crime. As well as gangsters and ordinary felons, the book includes doctors, millionaries, housewives, children, lawyers, accountants, officers and gentlemen who have succumbed to the killing instinct. Behind the sensational names concocted by the tabloid press - 'Boston Strangler', 'Dracula Killer', 'Night Stalker', 'Granny Killer' - lurk real murderers committing acts of violence in circumstances often more bizarre than fiction. Arranged in an easy-to-use A-Z format, the book contains over 500 cases from serial killers such as Dennis Nilsen and Ted Bundy, to those such as Jeremy Bamber and Steven Benson who dispatched their parents for money; from murderous New Zealand teenagers whose story made a successful film, to the many doctors and nurses who took life instead of saving it; from unsolved murders such as the murder of Little Gregory in France to the paid assignments of John Waynes Hearn, a Vietnam veteran who killed to order. The result is a classic of true crime, a definitive work on murder as a worldwide phenomenon.
