Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook model of The Holocaust by Laurence Rees, browse by Jonathan Keeble.

This landmark work answers two of the most fundamental questions in history – how, and just why, did the Holocaust happen?

Laurence Rees offers spent twenty-five years meeting survivors and perpetrators of the Holocaust. Right now, in his magnum opus, he combines their enthralling eyewitness testimony, a large amount of which has under no circumstances been released before, with the most recent about The Holocaust: A New History academic analysis to make the first available and authoritative accounts from the Holocaust in more than three years.

This is a fresh history of the Holocaust in three ways. First, and most importantly, Rees has generated a gripping narrative that which has a great deal of testimony which has under no circumstances been published before. Second, he places this effective interview materials in the framework of an study of the decision making procedure for the Nazi condition, and in the process reveals the series of escalations that cumulatively created the horror. Third, Rees addresses those across European countries who participated in the deaths, and he argues that whilst hatred of the Jews was constantly in the epicentre of Nazi considering, what happened cannot be completely understood without taking into consideration the murder from the Jews alongside plans to kill an incredible number of non-Jews, including homosexuals, ‘Gypsies’ as well as the disabled.

Through a chronological, intensely readable narrative, featuring enthralling eyewitness testimony and the latest academic research, that is a compelling new account of the worst type of crime ever sold.
