This is an auction for THE SCOURGE OF THE SWASTIKA by Lord Russell of Liverpool.

Subtitled "A SHORT HISTORY OF NAZI WAR CRIMES".

Amazon.com reviews:

"When discussing the German war crimes of the Second World War, histories have focused on the Holocaust. While the Final Solution was a unique and unparalleled horror, German atrocities did not end there. The Nazis terrorized their own citizens, tortured and murdered POWs, and carried out countless executions throughout occupied Europe. Lord Russell of Liverpool was part of the legal team that brought Nazi war criminals to justice, and from this first-hand position, he published the sensational, bestselling The Scourge of the Swastika in 1954. Liverpool shows that the actions of the Third Reich, including the Holocaust, were illegal, not merely immoral."

"FIVE STARS! Anyone who denies the Holocaust must read this book. It is horrifying and so sad. I am a grown man and a veteran, and several sections brought a tear to my eye."

"FIVE STARS!! OMG. Read this book. It details atrocities which are rarely mentioned anywhere. Thank God the Germans deliberately wiped their slate as clean as they could in the late 1940s and the 1950s. There was much to disinfect. Because the Germans were so intent on making a clean breast and moving away from Nazism a quickly as they could, the British government didn't want Lord Russell overturning the post war apple cart by publishing this book. BUT he did and thanks to this re-release, we can all know the hellish depths of the German soul in those years."

"FIVE STARS! Horrible and almost unbelievable things happened in German ruled Europe under the Nazis. Lord Russell gives a vivid description of these horrors."
