6 million Jews were murdered by the Nazis, but this is only half
the story. Doris Bergen reveals how the Holocaust extended beyond
the Jews to engulf millions of other victims in related programmes
of mas-murder. The Nazi killing machine began with the disabled,
and went on to target Afro-Germans, Gypsies, non-Jewish Poles,
French African soldiers, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexual men
and Jehovah's Witnesses. As Nazi Germany conquered more territories
and peoples, Hitler's war turned soldiers, police officers and
doctors into trained killers, creating a veneer of legitimacy
around vicious acts of ethnic cleansing and genocide. Using the
testimonies of both survivors and eyewitnesses, as well as a wealth
of rarely seen photographs, Doris Bergen shows the true extent of
the catastrophe that overwhelmed Europe during the Second World
War, in a gripping story of the lives and deaths of real people.
