When I started the series Holocaust Handbooks back in 1999 while preparing the publication of its first volume – Dissecting the Holocaust, which made its debut a year later – I always hoped that this series would eventually have as many as 30 volumes, but certainly at least 20. It was an ambitious project, for sure.
With this issue, we can actually announce that our prestigious series has officially reached FIFTY volumes!
The Birthday Child: As this volume of Inconvenient History goes to print in July 2024, the Holocaust Handbooks have grown to encompass 52 Volumes – pictured above – with No. 53 just having been submitted. Read them all free of charge at www.HolocaustHandbooks.com.
This would be a good point to stop, but knowing Carlo Mattogno and myself, I am sure that there is still more to come. Will we reach 100? Well, I kind of hope not, because there can be too much of even the best things, and asking people to wrap their heads around a series of 100 research studies may be too much to ask. Time will tell. At some point, someone else will hopefully take over editing the series, and at that point, all bets are off.
Speaking of difficulties to wrap one’s head around this series: I have recently received that complaint from various quarters. Anyone who wants to understand where Holocaust revisionism stands today, cannot but at least acknowledge this series. And if you want to fully comprehend revisionism, there is no other way than to absorb it completely. But how can anyone manage to read 50(+?) books totaling some 18,000(+) pages, and then retain all this information? This is borderline impossible. Anyone struggling to systematically read through, say, half of the series within a few months will probably find themselves in a position where they’ve forgotten already much of what they read earlier. It’s a losing battle with the fallible human memory.
Hence, an idea born in early 2022 was dusted up to condense and organize all this knowledge. As I am writing this, I am in the middle of this very project, deeply invested and highly focused. It will help us all in our attempts at wrapping our heads around it all. It will come to fruition hopefully later this year. We will report on this once the time has come.
Now I must get back to this project, working 14 hours a day, seven days a week. I’m on a mission…
Germar Rudolf was born on October 29, 1964, in Limburg, Germany. He studied chemistry at Bonn University, where he graduated in 1989 as a Diplom-Chemist, which is comparable to a U.S. PhD degree. From 1990-1993, he prepared a German PhD thesis at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research in conjunction with the University of Stuttgart, Germany. Parallel to this and in his spare time, Rudolf prepared an expert report on chemical and technical questions of the alleged gas chambers of Auschwitz (see The Chemistry of Auschwitz). He conclude in it that "the alleged facilities for mass extermination at Auschwitz and Birkenau were not suited for the purpose as claimed." As a result, he had to endure severe measures of persecution in subsequent years. Hence, he went into British exile, where he started a revisionist publishing outlet. When Germany asked Britain to extradite Rudolf in 1999, he fled to the U.S. There he applied for political asylum, expanded his publishing activities, and in 2004 married a U.S. citizen. In 2005, the U.S. granted him an immigrant visa based on his marriage, but seconds later arrested and subsequently deported him back to Germany in crass violation of U.S. law. In Germany, where he was put in prison for 44 months for his scholarly writings, some of which he had published in the U.S., where they are perfectly legal. Since not a criminal under U.S. law, he managed to immigrate permanently to the U.S. in 2011. Rudolf has published more than 90 books (currently available through Armreg US and Armreg UK), among them the 54 volumes of the Holocaust Handbooks. He has compiled 9 documentaries and authored 20 non-fiction books, among them the bestselling Holocaust Encyclopedia. With a brief interruption, he has managed the free-speech organization Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust since 2014, where we defend free speech at the forefront of corporate censorship and governmental persecution. In 2017, he became chief editor of CODOH’s quarterly periodical Inconvenient History. In early 2025, he launched the Holocaust Academy, dedicated to bringing critical thinking to Holocaust education. In that context, he organized the 2026 Holocaust Summit, dedicated to “Tackling the Most-Harmful Ideology Undermining Peace, Truth and Freedom Worldwide”.
An interview. Last month I received from Arnaud Hubert the following request by email. (Hi. I’m a journalist for French monthly magazine Planete Internet (http://www.planete-internet.com). We're working on a story about revisionist sites and activists on the Net. As you know, this is a very sensitive issue in France, because of history reasons but also…
As we go to print I have to wonder if Bradley isn’t regretting, just slightly, actually paying a woman to nag him. When he hired me he said that he wanted to get organized. What the poor man didn’t know is that I am an obsessive organizer. So here we are! We installed Microsoft Publisher…
Marco den Ouden, president of the West Coast Libertarian Foundation in Vancouver (Canada), contacts me by email. “Brad, I understand that you are a political libertarian as am I. There are two revisionists in our group here and … one of them and myself have started discussing [revisionism] at length. We started with a short…
For the fourth issue of last year’s Inconvenient History, a Greek revisionist submitted four papers, all of them reviews of various books, although one was a mere brief scrutiny of false claimed made by one author (Lawrence Rees). It was the very first time that we heard or rather read anything from Panagiotis Heliotis, a…
You never know when you will suffer a small epiphany. I was telling Bill Jefferson, one of my more critical volunteer advisors, about how the Georgia State Signal has been a rock over the past few years, steadfastly publishing CODOH advertisements and bearing up under criticism from the Georgia press and the Lobby again and…
Because of substantial contributions over the last six weeks by three supporters, to each of whom I here reiterate my appreciation, all my personal accounts are current. Additionally, my business and credit card debts, which had soared to $15,800, now stand at $12,900. Interest on the card debt alone is about $330 a month. The…
