At this moment in history-the infamous tytanny• that
W(U
Ntuilm hcu again
claimed the attention of the civilized world. Everywhere-people of good will seek to
understand the conditions that created such a despotic dictator as Adolph Hitler and
unleashed the Nazi nightmare of brutality and sadism.
The evil committeed by the Third Reich still lingers abroad in the world. The
lesser tyrants of that day still seek to keep alive their philosophy o/ hate and destruc-
tion. Today, the new generation that
hcu
grown to manhood must know the full extent
o/
Nai
barbarism if it is not to rise again.
The more light focused on the truth of the
Ncui
tyranny-the better decent
men
can recognize the dangers o/ its rebirth.
It
is
to achieve that end that this book recounts the period of darkness when
the
Nai
tyranny almost conquered the free world. The Ieason it teaches must con-
stantly be learned if civilization is to survive.

Today-1961-the attention of the world is
on a courtroom in Jerusalem, Israel.
eitting
in
the prisoner's dock, the infamous
Eichmann listens to evidence charging him
the most monstrous crime ever committed
humanity-the calculated extermination
ux
million European Jews. There he awaits his
before the bar of justice and with him
the civilized world.
at this moment in time, Adolf Eichmann
in
the center of the world stage as the
of Nazi fanaticism and brutality,
it
must
remembered that he was but a part of a vast
machine created by Adolf Hitler
.
the name of the Third Reich. The tentacles of
machine extended across the length and
of Europe, from Russia to the English
IIBJnnel, from the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean.
1933, when Hitler came to power as
of Germany until his suicide in the
below the Reichs-chancellery
in
Berlin on
ril 30, 1945-the Nazi tryranny, unequalled in
history, murdered more than twelve million'
women and children in Germany, in the in·
nationa, and in the occupied territories. Of
number, more than eight million died in the
!ttorifltus concentration camps that are now
names- Auschwitz, Buchenwald,
,, Belsen, Maidenek, Treblinka, Ravens-
Mauthausen.
BJn almost inconceivable catastrophe of
could only be accomplished by long term
meticulously conceived, scrupulously
out. The monumental task of killing twelve
people takes much time, much machinery
great numbers of men. Of this number, there
the Fuhrer at the fountain source of power.
the rung below Hitler were the Reich leaders-
Goebbels, Hess, Rimmler, Rosenberg,
Bormann, Frank, Ley. And on a lower rung,
a.beolu~ely
necessary to the efficiency of the
JM~htllle,
wu Adolf Eichmann and a vast network
officiala who daily administered the extermina-
tion
of the )ewe, the shooting of hostages, the ma. s
s
execution• of civiliBJns and the murder of political
and Allied war prisoners.
That th.e se dead shall not have died in vain is
the reuon why Adolf Eichmann today faces justice.
But AdoH Eichmann
is
not the last of the unjust
men of the Nazi tyranny to answer for their crimes
-lnat humanity.
Today, in Germany, in Egypt, in Argentina-

In
the United States, Nazi criminals of greater
and
le~aaer
rank than AdoH Eichmann are still
at IBJrge. Theil: crimes are told in these pages.
Their
