The Journal of Historical Review - cover

Volume Sixteen · Number Five · September/October 1997

Between 1980 and 2002, The Journal of Historical Review was published by the Institute for Historical Review.

British historian Martin Gilbert is a falsifier. While he is best known as the official biographer of Winston Churchill, he has also written several widely-lauded works on the “Holocaust.” Gilbert, who is Jewish, staunchly defends the thesis of the so-called extermination of the Jews, an extermination allegedly carried out in particular by means of homicidal…

Stutthof

While Stutthof is not as well known as other wartime German camps, a close look at the history of this important internment center actually tells more about the reality of the Third Reich’s “final solution” policy than studies of much better known camps such as Dachau or Buchenwald.
