KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps by Nikolaus Wachsmann

5.0

An extremely well-written history of the concentration camps, KL is informative and heart-breaking. Wachsmann always resists the urge to veer into purple prose, which other historians tend to do when covering the Nazis. He rebuts a number of conclusions people tend to make about the Holocaust, and he provides both the big and little picture. This is important reading for all of us who want to be sure that we do not repeat the horrors of the past.
