Praise for Denying the Holocaust
“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
