The Eternal Nazi
From the New York Times reporters who first uncovered S.S. officer Aribert Heim’s secret life in Egypt comes the never-before-told story of the most hunted Nazi war criminal in the world. Dr. Aribert Heim worked at the Mauthausen concentration camp for only a few months in 1941 but left a devastating mark. According to the testimony of survivors, Heim euthanized patients with injections of gasoline into their hearts. He performed surgeries on otherwise healthy people. Some recalled prisoners' skulls set out on his desk to display perfect sets of teeth. Yet in the chaos of the postwar period, Heim was able to slip away from his dark past and establish himself as a reputable doctor and famil...
Austria 1867-1955
Austria 1867-1955 connects the political history of German-speaking provinces of the Habsburg Empire before 1914 (Vienna and the Alpine Lands) with the history of the Austrian Republic that emerged in 1918. John W. Boyer presents the case of modern Austria as a fascinating example of democratic nation-building.

By the end of 1945, the SS concentration camp system had become an overwhelming landscape of terror. Twenty-two large camps and over one thousand satellite camps throughout Germany and Europe were at the heart of the Nazi campaign of repression and intimidation. The importance of the camps in terms of Nazi history and our modern world cannot be questioned. Dr Nikolaus Wachsmann is the first historian to write a complete history of the camps. Combining the political and the personal, Wachsmann examines the organisation of such an immense genocidal machine, whilst drawing a vivid picture of ...
Das sichtbare unfassbare
Fotografien vom nationalsozialistischen Konzentrationslager Mauthausen und seiner Außenlager existieren in großer Zahl. Manche sind zu regelrechten Ikonen geworden. Die meisten von ihnen blieben jedoch unbekannt, nicht zuletzt deshalb, weil sie über die ganze Welt verstreut sind. Für die Ausstellung "Das sichtbare Unfassbare" wurde erstmals umfangreiches, teilweise nie gezeigtes Fotomaterial aus Frankreich, Österreich, Spanien, Tschechien und den USA zusammengetragen. Der vorliegende Katalog bietet eine repräsentative Auswahl davon und zeigt Bilder, die von der Errichtung des KZ-Systems bis zur Befreiung und der ersten Zeit danach reichen.
