New York: Holt, Rinehart and Winston, 1975.LC 74-15470. ISBN 0-03-013661-0.In what is probably the most widely read workon the Holocaust, Dawidowicz argues that World WarII was a two-fold war. The Nazis had conventionalobjectives such as territory, power, and wealth. Theyalso unleashed a "war against the Jews" motivated byideology and anti-Semitism. Hitler intended the genocideand World War II provided an effective vehicleto accomplish it. A useful appendix indicates the fateof the Jews, country by country.3Fleming, Gerald.
