About this product

Product Information

This is the first comprehensive book in English on the fate of the homosexuals in Nazi Germany. The author, a German refugee, examines the climate and conditions that gave rise to a vicious campaign against Germany's gays, as directed by Himmler and his SS--persecution that resulted in tens of thousands of arrests and thousands of deaths. In this Nazi crusade, homosexual prisoners were confined to death camps where, forced to wear pink triangles, they constituted the lowest rung in the camp hierarchy. The horror of camp life is described through diaries, previously untranslated documents, and interviews with and letters from survivors, revealing how the anti-homosexual campaign was conducted, the crackpot homophobic fantasies that fueled it, the men who made it possible, and those who were its victims, this chilling book sheds light on a corner of twentieth-century history that has been hidden in the shadows much too long.

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!

    The samy system used in Germany and Russia with gay acceptance and then gay rejection is hapening here today

    The homosexual attack in Germany was a planed event. The gay community first received wide spread acceptance in politics and the press and then rejection and the death camps. This was also used in Russia (Though not covered in the book) and in both cases homosexual rights was used to attack law and religion to solidify power in the new government. When a power base was set the gays were marched off to the death camps with the Jews. The sad thing is that the same system is being repeated in the USA today with unisex bathrooms and acceptance from movie makers, editorials, the press and politicians. Do not expect this to last for ever for when the government gets what it wants:power, a rejection soon follows. The book is worthwhile and extra study essential so you know how this system was ...

    Forgotten victims!

    It was very enlightening about the treatment of gay males and ignoring females. Very sad story as is the whole Holocaust!! Well worth a read to learn more about this horrendous time period.
