The Holocaust History Project

Posted on March 26, 1998

The Holocaust History Project, a newly formed organization both of and for Holocaust researchers, announced the opening of its website at http://www.holocaust-history.org/. The Project was formed in 1997 both to respond to the fraudulent claims of Holocaust-deniers and to document that period of history. The site also provides an email question-and-answer service, for all questions relating to the Holocaust, at questions@holocaust-history.org.

Already, a great deal of material has been amassed, including several book-length works reproduced page-by-page such as the first two volumes documenting the Nuremberg Trial. Some material is of interest to general researchers, such as a reproduction of the original Stroop Report; other documents are more specialized, such as the 70-page technical work on Zyklon-B, from 1933, Blausaeure zur Schaedlingsbekaempfung.

Additionally, many essays by THHP members discuss issues of the Holocaust, and its denial, in detail. "Our essays cover a variety of topics," said THHP member Laura Finsten, "and should be of interest to readers with a variety of backgrounds. Historians, student researchers, or just people who have run across denial on the net: there's something for everyone."
