The Holocaust: A New History Audiobook (Free)

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

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

Laurence Rees has spent twenty-five years conference survivors and perpetrators of the Holocaust. Now, in his magnum opus, he combines their enthralling eyewitness testimony, a large amount of which has by no means been published before, with the latest about The Holocaust: A New History academic research to generate the first available and authoritative account from the Holocaust in a lot more than three years.

This is a fresh history of the Holocaust in three ways. First, & most importantly, Rees has created a gripping narrative that that contains a large amount of testimony that has hardly ever been released before. Second, he locations this powerful interview materials in the context of an study of the decision producing procedure for the Nazi state, and along the way reveals the group of escalations that cumulatively produced the horror. Third, Rees addresses those across Europe who participated in the fatalities, and he argues that whilst hatred from the Jews was constantly at the epicentre of Nazi considering, what happened can’t be completely understood without taking into consideration the murder of the Jews alongside programs to kill millions of non-Jews, including homosexuals, ‘Gypsies’ and the impaired.

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