Journal of Historical Review

Volumes 1-21 · 1980 to 2002

The Journal of Historical Review began publication in 1980. Until 2002, when it ceased to exist, it upheld the tradition of Historical Revisionism of scholars such as Harry Elmer Barnes, A.J.P. Taylor, William H. Chamberlin, Paul Rassinier and Charles Tansill. Until 1992, The Journal of Historical Review was published four times a year in a small format (roughly 5.5″×8″). Since 1993 it appeared bimonthly (in letter size format) by the Institute for Historical Review. Back issues of many Journal issues published since Spring 1986 (Volume 7) are available from the IHR at www.ihr.org. CODOH is the only place where you can find online and for free ALL the papers of ALL the issues ever published, both as html and as PDF downloads. 80% of the work was done by Germar Rudolf, the rest by IHR employees.

You can either download each copy as a searchable PDF file (first table) or read each individual paper online (pull up the table of contents for each issue from the second table below, or navigate the Category menu to the left). The PDF we posted are based on scanned images, processed many years ago with a cheap OCR software. Since they have not been edited, they are riddled with errors.

Reflections on Auschwitz and West German Justice

My booklet, The Auschwitz Lie, has become an under-the-counter bestseller. It has appeared in French, Spanish, Dutch, Danish and even Hungarian, as well as in several English language editions. Actually, there's nothing very remarkable about The Auschwitz Lie except that it was written by someone who was in Auschwitz and who recorded his experiences and…

The Torture of Julius Streicher

“This is Purim Fest 1946!” was Julius Streicher's apt comment before he was sucked down into death via a gallows trap-door in the Nuremberg Prison gymnasium on 16 October 1946.

Soviet Scorched-Earth Warfare: Facts and Consequences

The Soviet scorched-earth policy has many facets: Military, economic, and so on. In The Dissolution of Eastern European Jewry I touched only on those which are of importance in connection with the demographic changes of Eastern European Jewry.

Churchill Wanted to “Drench” Germany With Poison Gas

In a secret wartime memorandum recently made public, Winston Churchill told his advisers that he wanted to “drench” Germany with poison gas. Churchill's July 1944 memo to his chief of staff Gen. Hastings Ismay was reproduced in the August-September 1985 issue of American Heritage magazine. “I you to think very seriously over this question of…

The Civil War Concentration Camps

No aspect of the American Civil War left behind a greater legacy of bitterness and acrimony than the treatment of prisoners of war. “Andersonville” still conjures up images of horror unmatched in American History. And although Northern partisans still invoke the infamous Southern camp to defame the Confederacy, the Union had its share of equally…
