Using previously un-released intelligence material on Nazi plans, Breitman examines how Germany's leaders brought about the Holocaust and when. He assess the British and American suppression of information about Nazi killings, and the tensions between the two powers over how to respond. His absorbing work concludes with an examination of the consequences of keeping this information secret for so many decades.

Hardback. Etat : Mint. Etat de la jaquette : Mint. First Edition. OFFICIAL SECRETS What the Nazis Planned What the British and Americans Knew. Richard Breitman Allen Lane The Penguin Press, London 1999 First Edition ISBN 0713992921 326pp Hardback. This copy is in MINT condition in a MINT unclipped dustwrapper. They were ordinary people not necessarily motivated by politics or hate. But they were killers on behalf of the German state, members of the Order Police and frontline ethnic cleansers in the massacres that became the Holocaust. Their role has long been underestimated or even overlooked by historians. Until now that is, in a major work which presents a wealth of fascinating new evidence on the planning of the greatest of all crimes.Richard Breitman takes a detailed look at the thinking of the Nazi leaders, and at how the Holocaust was planned. He investigates the work of men such as the "able, but dull" Kurt Daluege whose role as head of the Order Police was far greater than many had previously believed. And he presents new evidence, much of it culled from files which have remained secret for half a century, showing just what the Allies know about the wholesale slaughter of 6 million Jews. The British code crackers who broke the German cyphers began to piece the story together from mid-1941. But the Government was preoccupied with World War II, not the beginning of the Holocaust, and disclosure that the facts were known would have alerted the enemy to the fact that coded German messages were being intercepted. Meanwhile, in the US, says Breitman: "many State Department officials chose not to believe or to act on what evidence they had." Ref U3. N° de réf. du vendeur 005838
