This recent government publication investigates an area often
overlooked by historians: the impact of the Holocaust on the
Western powers' intelligence-gathering community. A guide for
researchers rather than a narrative study, it explains the archival
organization of wartime records accumulated by the U.S. Army's
Signal Intelligence Service and Britain's Government Code and
Cypher School. In addition, it summarizes Holocaust-related
information intercepted during the war years and deals at length
with the fascinating question of how information about the
Holocaust first reached the West.
The guide begins with brief summaries of the history of
anti-Semitism in the West and early Nazi policies in Germany. An
overview of the Allies' system of gathering communications
intelligence follows, along with a list of American and British
sources of cryptologic records. A concise review of communications
intelligence notes items of particular relevance to the Holocaust's
historical narrative, and the book concludes with observations on
cryptology and the Holocaust. Numerous photographs illuminate the
text.
