What was the extent of allied knowledge regarding the mass murder
of Jews at Auschwitz during the Second World War? The question is
one which continues to prompt heated historical debate, and Michael
Fleming's important new book offers a definitive account of just
how much the Allies knew. By tracking Polish and other reports
about Auschwitz from their source, and surveying how knowledge was
gathered, controlled and distributed to different audiences, the
book examines the extent to which information about the camp was
passed on to the British and American authorities, and how the
dissemination of this knowledge was limited by propaganda and
information agencies in the West. In a fascinating new study, the
author reveals that the Allies had extensive knowledge of the mass
killing of Jews at Auschwitz much earlier than previously thought;
but the publicising of this information was actively discouraged in
Britain and the US.
