Inside the Vicious Heart: Americans and the Liberation of Nazi Concentration Camps
Forty years ago Allied soldiers liberated Buchenwald, Dachau, Belsen, and other concentration camps, and came face to face with the human ruins of the Nazi system of slave labor and genocide. What they saw transformed the definition of evil in the Western mind. Inside the Vicious Heartcaptures the shock of that discovery by telling the story of the camp liberations as experienced by American GIs and other eyewitness, including Eisenhower, Patton, Joseph Pulitzer, and Margaret Bourke-White. Through their diaries, letters, and photographs we see how those Americans finally madethe world believe what until then had only been rumored."A fine book, a signal contribution to the literature of the Holocaust."--Chicago Sun-Times"Abzug has done an excellent job...Not a book to dwell on...but not one that should be overlooked either."--The New York Times"Well and memorably done."--Kirkus ReviewsFrom the Back CoverThe liberation of the Nazi concentration camps in 1945 permanently transformed our sense of the human capacity for evil, and ultimately changed our view of the world.About the AuthorRobert H. Abzug, Associate Professor of History, University of Texas, Austin.
