Editorial Reviews
Review
A work of exceptional breadth, clarity and rich detail that will engage beginning students and will be an invaluable resource for advanced students seeking a synthesis of the complex history of the Holocaust. This outstanding text is shaped equally by brilliant pedagogical organization and meticulous scholarship.”
—Marilyn J. Harran, Professor of Religious Studies and History; Director, Rodgers Center for Holocaust Education, Chapman University
Professor Crowe has produced a compelling and up-to-date history of the Holocaust, one that is clearly written and comprehensive. He begins by examining the origins of the longest hatred' of the Jews, proceeds to carry the reader through the subsequent horrors of the persecution, and ends with the war crimes trials of the perpetrators. Students will be in his debt.”
—Karl A. Schleunes, University of North Carolina at Greensboro; author of The Twisted Road to Auschwitz and Legislating the Holocaust

Over the past few years I have read more than 150 books on the Holocaust, some of which were very detailed reports of single events. But sometimes it's necessary to back away from the "trees" to see the "forest." Crowe's comprehensive overview, "The Holocaust," accomplishes this, with its organization and breadth of coverage. It is well-written and very accessible. Highly recommended.

Overall good condition. However, I paid for the price of a new book since it would have shipped faster. The book I received came used. It has a couple of highlighted sections in the beginning and the front/back cover are slightly wrinkled.

Bought this for a college class, and it was exactly what I needed.

I had bought this book for a college class that I'm taking, but found myself reading it in my free time.
The content in this book is unparalleled and is extremely vivid. I am a WWII history buff, but I found many facts about the holocaust that television and movies would not dare to touch.
If you are looking for a reference book, or just wanting to read about this extremely sensitive and little spoken of topic, this is the book that you need.
