Synopsis :

Everyone is familiar with the haunting and powerful images of death in the Nazi concentration camps, especially with films such as "Schindler's List". Yet there is a growing faction that denies that these events ever took place. This book investigates this trend in holocaust denial.

Revue de presse: “Important and impassioned... A comprehensive account of Holocaust denial, particularly from an American perspective and particularly for the reader with little prior knowledge of the subject. It rigorously traces the movement's roots and development both in this country and abroad, describes the ways the deniers have managed to focus attention on their arguments in both educational institutions and the news media, and explores the susceptibility of Americans, as well as others, to their arguments.”—Walter Reich, New York Times
 
“Lipstadt, who has been sued for libel by Holocaust denier David Irving, was the first to call attention to the rapidly expanding movement to deny that the Holocaust ever took place. In this groundbreaking analysis, she profiles the deniers and explains their viewpoints and exposes the rabid anti-Semitism at the heart of Holocaust denial and the very serious threat it poses.”—Donna Seaman, Booklist
