"This book distills a crucial lesson--perhaps the crucial lesson--of the 20th century: that the human capacity for mass murder is grotesquely widespread and must be faced squarely if we hope to resist it."—Washington Post
"This admirable book deserves to be widely read."—Ian Kershaw, author of Hitler: 1889-1936 Hubris and Hitler: 1936-1945 Nemesis
"Excellent."—Boyd Tonkin, The Independent
"A path-breaking work...the depth and wealth of detail Rees provides make this treatment highly compelling."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Thank God that occasionally books of the stature of Laurence Rees's superb Auschwitz: The Nazis and the "Final Solution" are published... Fascinating."—Andrew Roberts, Evening Standard
