The
Pinnacle of Holocaust Research!
This
Holocaust Encyclopedia is hands down, the most amazing, meticulously
well-researched, and exhaustive collection of historical Holocaust information
printed to date. There is not one issue, not one point of controversy, not one
corner of taboo narrative left unaddressed. No stone is left unturned. We all
know that historically the victors typically write the history, and we all know
that in war atrocity propaganda has long been a tactic to demonize the enemy.
This encyclopedia carves through all of the myths and propaganda noise about the
Holocaust to deliver the unvarnished Truth about the most well-financed
historical narrative in history.
As you
read, the mythic tall tales get taken down one by one while the tragic reality
of what happened shines through, supported by impeccable research, backed by
primary sources, empirical data, scientific findings and original documentation.
The sources for this Holocaust Encyclopedia aren’t just limited to the very
tunnel-visioned filter of a well-financed narrative of the victors of war, but
rather span the globe from the US, across the UK and Europe, and into Russia,
gathered together over the past seven decades.
Without
a doubt, this Holocaust Encyclopedia is priceless and an invaluable source for
anyone wanting to learn about, or teach, the reality of the events surrounding
WWII and the Holocaust. It’s especially interesting that the critics of this
vast work never actually soundly debunk anything in it – not one thing – but
simply use slanderous terms, accusations, and the “nuh-uh” rebuttal. All void of
any substance. But that’s because the only way to attack truth is through lies
and vitriol – but that ultimately fails. We all need to mature in our filtering
of info, and stop being so gullible for the stories and narratives of the
victors of war. History is never that clean and neatly packaged. This Holocaust
Encyclopedia will undoubtedly help you to view this piece of history with a more
critical and discerning eye, and you will be richly rewarded with truth and new
understanding, and what was once a droned historical narrative will come to life
anew. This book is worth every penny. And as a bonus, the publishers made an
interactive, usable version online so that you can try-before-you-buy. Can’t
beat that!

only with hard-cover binding (b&w or color). The paperback version has been
discontinued, as its binding was not sturdy enough for this heavy book.
A
Welcome Return to Objective Analysis over Polemicism
One
would think that as important as an understanding of World War 2, and the actual
factual history of that period is to understanding our world in its present
state that the number of choices of scholarly works to immerse ourselves in
would be overwhelming if anything.
Instead,
what we find is that most works of this nature do not focus on providing the
reader and student of history with an encyclopedic frame of reference for what
happened to whom, when, where, and why… but rather (usually less than
encyclopedic in actuality) litany of talking points and accounts.
If the
work in question was a work of classic literature, that would be all well and
good. But those who do not wish to repeat the mistakes of the past and rather,
wish to learn from them, will likely be frustrated by this approach, as it
renders most so-called Holocaust Encyclopedias more a strange sort of catechism,
than a canonical study aid.
If
“Never Again” is to be our mantra, than we can and must do better. This new
Holocaust Encyclopedia seeks to correct this appalling lack of utility in its
predecessors by focusing not on indoctrinating the reader, but on arming and
equipping them with the actual facts and data about all of the locales and the
people involved.
Incredible though it may seem, this encyclopedia is making history all over
again, but dedicating itself to being an actual compendium of all of the
relevant information, the candid truth seeker will need to know beyond a shadow
of reasonable doubt what happened to whom and when.
As such,
I can wholeheartedly say that EVERYONE needs to own a copy of this work, no
matter how many Holocaust Encyclopedias they might already have in their
library.
Holocaust Denialism Masquerading as Academic Research
Dan OH
(1-star review) May 14, 2024
Be wary
of publications like this one and websites that masquerade as legitimate
academic publications. They have bought the domain holocaustencyclopedia.com
which if you did not know any better, you would think that this is a trusted
resource. The website uses conspiratorial language such as “Our project is
special, unique, irreplaceable, and at the very top of what irritates the
politically correct and kosher establishment.” It labels it as a voice in the
wilderness crying out against the wishes of the “Powers that be.”
The
encyclopedia ignores the testimony of thousands and tries to mask denial in the
veneer of scientific and historical methods of research. It also fails to
identify the various so-called scholars and academics behind this encyclopedia.
Not to mention it is sponsored by the committee for open debate on the holocaust
which the SPLC has labeled as an antisemitic and revisionist organization
promoting conspiracy theories about the Holocaust.
Editor’s
Comments
What is
conspiratorial about the sentence: “Our project is special, unique,
irreplaceable, and at the very top of what irritates the politically correct and
kosher establishment”??? Amazon banning this book PROOFS this very point to be
true.
Our
encyclopedia contains more then 270 entries summarizing and discussing witness
statements – in contrast to the mother of all mainstream encyclopedias, Gutman’s
1990 Encyclopedia of the Holocaust, which contains ZERO entries on
witness accounts, and neither summarizes nor discusses any. So, which
“encyclopedia ignores the testimony of thousands”?
This
review is a typical hatchet job of a denier of reality and obfuscator of truth,
turning black into white and up into down.
Excellent Debunking of Myths, so You Can Focus on the Truth.
One of
the reasons the Holocaust narrative comes in for a lot of criticism (aside from
the fact that in many places you aren’t allowed to criticize it, unlike just
about any other historical event), are the parts that have accreted since WW2
and have been found to be false. e.g. the lampshades of human skin.
So, a
book which handily debunks the actual bunkum is very useful to allow scholars
and the historically interested concentrate on the undoubtedly true parts.
It is
unfortunate that some choose to see that as holocaust denial rather than be
thankful that there is a source to prevent the propagation of gross lies that,
when revealed, cause people to doubt everything and turn into deniers, and be
skeptical of actual facts.
Given
that the research seems impeccable and footnoted, if there are problems with it;
perhaps a source is not as reliable as it appears? It seems that the authors
should be informed so that subsequent editions will be corrected or annotated.
Like most large projects it is likely that there are some innocent errors, but
to err is human.
It also
behooves critics to be specific and honest, and not paint with a broad brush.
After
all, just because some accounts of the holocaust have been admitted to be 100%
made up, doesn’t mean that they all are, but those that are false should be
called out in the interest of historical truth.

Excellent Academic Research, with Hundreds of Witness Statements and Sources
Clearly Referenced
I cannot
recommend this Holocaust encyclopedia enough. I would give it ten stars if I
could.
It
details everything most thoroughly with literally hundreds of witness
statements. It extensively and clearly quotes multiple irrefutable sources &
supporting publications. For many of them, free online resources are given, so
everyone can fact-check the claims made. Thus, no one has to take anything at
face value.
There
are 579 entries, of which over 300 deal with ‘witness accounts’. The honest
searcher will soon have good reason to suspect that many of these ‘witnesses’
were coerced, tortured, stage-managed, repeating hearsay, or simply downright
mendacious. Making absurd stuff up. Often in defiance of basic physics &
chemistry.
The hard
copy, which I have lying here, open on my desk, is truly beautifully produced. A
veritable treasure trove to the serious historian.
I am
especially impressed with the depth of knowledge on display, the scientific
details, and the compassionate & respectful tone throughout.
I have
studied the so-called Holocaust for many years now, and I have a collection of
some fifty books on the subject. I can say without hesitation, that this
encyclopedia fully justifies its description.
Well-Researched Book
I found
the Holocaust Encyclopedia to be an excellent source of information concerning
the Holocaust. I recommend this well-researched book to anyone who wants to
learn more about the Holocaust.
Conscientious Study of Controversies Concerning the Holocaust
A
sincere effort to make an objective assessment of evidence concerning the
treatment of Jews, and others, during the Third Reich. The contributors exhibit
understanding and empathy for the suffering of that class of civilians caught up
in the system of arrest and detention in the prison system operating in
German-occupied territory before and during World War II. This study counters
many unsubstantiated assertions made years after the end of the war of
testimonies by individuals which conflict with the hard evidence available to
researchers.
