About the Author Raul Hilberg was the founding scholar of Holocaust studies in the United States and the author of numerous publications, including the classic The Destruction of the European Jews.
Supplemented with additional writings from Hilberg, primary source materials, and historical commentary from leading scholars Christopher Browning and Peter Hayes, this is a rich and accessible introduction to a topic in Holocaust history that remains understudied even today.
