Question: Good books about the Holocaust!?
Know any good books about the Holocaust!?
This isn't for school, just reading!.
And I'm an advanced reader, so you don't have to worry about something being too hard!.

I've already read the Diary of Anne Frank, as well as Night(also known as 'Nicht')

Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I also recommend checking out some of the great Holocaust movies, including Schindler's List, The Pianist, and Life is Beautiful!.

For some reason Yahoo isn't letting me link to it, but I found a pretty substantial list by typing "ya holocaust books" into Yahoo!. The url starts shoahbooksWww@QuestionHome@Com

To have a complete picture may I suggest you read also books on the Nazis to understand the "Holocaust" Books like the following:
1!. "The Order of the Death Heads" by Heinz Hoene [history of the Nazis SS]
2!. "The Psychopatic God" by Robert G!.L!. Waite
3!. "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" by William Shirer
5!. "Adolf Hitler" by Joachim C!. Fest
6!. "Inside the Third Reich" by Albert Speer!. [yes, a former Nazi, but he says things that make you wonder]
And others!. Yes, many people find the Nazis superrepulsive!. Understandible!. But how are you going to understand what caused this tragedy if you don't read about the perpetrators!? And also history of Europe from 1870 to 1945!.
PD!. Another book: 'The Mind of Adolf Hitler" by Walter C!. Langer!. Now careful with the Waite and Langer books!. They go into Hitler's mind and this guy was weird in the worse way!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
