Review:
"An epic examination of a Nazi war criminal" (Guardian)
"The most gripping and illuminating account of Nazi genocide that I have read, shedding light, as she intended, on "a whole dimension of reactions and behaviour we have never yet understood"" (Stephen Vizinczey Sunday Telegraph)
"She takes us sharply and deeply into the hierarchy of the death camps; the methods used; the experiences of the very few survivors, both inmates and guards" (Philip Toynbee Observer)
"It is no exaggeration to call it a masterpiece" (Michael Hilton Daily Telegraph)
From the Publisher:
The biography of Franz Stangl, commandant of the Treblinka extermination camp - a classic and utterly compelling study of evil.
