Book Reviews of The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939-1945

Book Review: a great accomplishment
Summary: 5 Stars

well this book willbe along the work of maybe raul hillberg book published along time agoone of the great reference work on this turning point in twentieth century history. but a couple of pictures would have made this book more interesting for the average reader

Book Review: A constant warning
Summary: 5 Stars


A beautiful book about monstrous beings. I have read many works on that terrible period of our earth; Friedlander's is one of the best. This is another list of warning signs for us. It contains data on what to guard against to retain sanity amongst us; but, there are reasons to suspect the signs are again surfacing, this time in our country.

Book Review: A thorough, complete and scholarly book on the Holocaust.
Summary: 5 Stars

"The Years of Extermination: Nazi Germany and the Jews, 1939-1945" is the most thorough, complete and scholarly book on the Holocaust that I have read. In an effort to try to understand why and how the Holocaust occured, I have read extensively about the conduct and activities of the Europeans as well as non Europeans (governments, organizations and people)during this awful period. Friedlander puts it all together for me, and as a result I have a much better understanding of these terrible events. I highly recomend this book to those who want to read an in depth study of the Holocaust.

Book Review: Impeccably researched
Summary: 5 Stars

I have nothing negative to state in a review of Friedlander's latest book; its organization, research, and presentation all seem to me faultless. And there is fresh perspective, too--which is a rare find in a Holocaust text. Friedlander is completely in control of his wrenching subject matter. Bravo.

Book Review: a must read
Summary: 5 Stars

this book was excellent for anyone that wants to learn about the holocaust and the atrocities that happened. this is a must read to keep the history alive so that nothing like this will ever happen again it takes you on a journey from before the holocaust to the prejudices and violence that lead up to the holocaust.
