Little scientific investigation has been directed toward the camp Lublin-Majdanek in central Poland, even though orthodox Holocaust sources claim that between 50,000 and over a million Jews were murdered there. Until the appearance of Concentration Camp Majdanek, the only works on Majdanek were authored by historians serving or trained under Poland’s communist regime. Mattogno and Graf have filled this glaring research gap with a monumental study that expertly dissects and repudiates the myth of homicidal gas chambers at Majdanek. Based on exhaustive research of the primary sources and of the physical remainders of the former concentration camp, this book strikes a death blow to the lie of homicidal gassings at Majdanek. The authors’ investigations lead to unambiguous and unsparing conclusions about the real history and the actual functioning of the camp which thoroughly destroy the official theses without excusing the abuses tolerated by Majdanek’s wartime commanders. With Concentration Camp Majdanek, Mattogno and Graf have once again produced a careful, methodical investigative work that sets the standard for all other treatments of Majdanek. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
