Does anyone else read holocaust literature and if so which book have you found most moving. The first book I read on the subject was Anus Mundy's 'Five Years in Austwich' and since that first book I have read many many more books on the subject and came to admire especially the life and books of Simon Wiesentall, a true hero.

I've read MASTERS OF DEATH about the members of the NAZI party that were responsible for creating the holocaust. It's a very graphic book. I also have THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK which I read part of years ago. And I have a book about Oskar Schindler which I haven't read yet. I have those books not because I like reading about the holocaust but rather because I like reading practically anything about World War II.

Hi dogsnme, yes I'm the same with the history reading. I haven't come across Masters of Death, who is it by?

It's by Richard Rhodes. It's a good book and it's very informative. I've always said that if this book were made into a movie without any editing it would be very difficult to watch.

I have only read the Diaries of Anne Frank. I would like to read some of these books mentioned though. I find this period of history fascinating!

It is a compelling period of history once you start reading, I have many autobigraphical books set in this time which are deeply moving.
