Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si poteva intervenire dal cielo evitando alla più grande fabbrica di morte di continuare a uccidere? Si poteva bombardare Auschwitz? Era una strada percorribile nella fase conclusiva della seconda guerra mondiale? Di ciò che stava accadendo nei campi di concentramento si sapeva molto (almeno dal 1942), eppure la macchina dello sterminio nazista è rimasta in piedi; quei binari hanno continuato a trasportare treni merci stracolmi di vite e di storie che giunte a destinazione prendevano una via senza ritorno. Il complesso di Auschwitz-Birkenau non rientra tra gli obiettivi degli attacchi dell'aviazione alleata, non compare nelle zone coperte dall'aerea bombing e non raccoglie le attenzioni necessarie da politici e alti comandi. Così, in un terribile paradosso della storia, mentre le sorti della guerra danno ragione alla grande coalizione delle Nazioni Unite e la sconfitta nazista si avvicina inesorabile, non si interrompe la macchina dello sterminio, le sue strutture rimangono in piedi operanti e perfezionate. Lo sforzo verso la vittoria finale è imponente, impegnativo fino all'ultimo istante, non ammette distrazioni o secondi fini. Non è pensabile concentrarsi su priorità che non siano quelle della condotta militare, su scelte e indirizzi segnati dall'urgenza di far presto per liberare il mondo da una minaccia incombente, senza precedenti. Così gli appelli di quei pochi testimoni oculari riusciti a fuggire dai lager, anche di coloro che chiedono un'azione mirata e repentina, non vengono ascoltati. I racconti dei sopravvissuti ci dicono che per mesi avevano sperato che quegli aerei, di cui sentivano i motori in lontananza, si potessero avvicinare per colpire, altri hanno creduto che presto o tardi la catena di morte si sarebbe interrotta. E per decenni, quando la dimensione della tragedia è emersa con chiarezza, sono prevalse le giustificazioni del momento e poi le scuse di fronte al mondo per un mancato intervento che avrebbe dato alla vittoria finale uno spessore più forte e convincente. Lontano dalle «retoriche della memoria», Umberto Gentiloni Silveri ricostruisce la fitta trama di incomprensioni che nei mesi cruciali del 1944 portò a sottovalutare la necessità di un intervento su Auschwitz e getta luce sul ritardo con cui istituzioni e opinione pubblica sono finalmente giunti a comprendere la tragedia della Shoah, a guardare dentro le proprie responsabilità, a raccoglierne il peso e l'eredità.

Book excerpt: December 1944. Soviet and German troops fight from house to house in the shattered, corpse-strewn suburbs of Budapest. Crazed Hungarian fascists join with die-hard Nazis to slaughter Jews day and night, turning the Danube blood-red. In less than six months, thirty-eight-year-old SS Colonel Adolf Eichmann has sent over half a million Hungarians to the gas chambers in Auschwitz. Now all that prevents him from liquidating Europe's last Jewish ghetto is an unarmed Swedish diplomatic envoy named Raoul Wallenberg. The Envoy is the stirring tale of how one man made the greatest difference in the face of untold evil. The legendary Oscar Schindler saved hundreds, but Raoul Wallenberg did what no other individual or nation managed to do: He saved more than 100,000 Jewish men, women, and children from extermination. Written with Alex Kershaw's customary narrative verve, The Envoy is a fast-paced, nonfiction thriller that brings to life one of the darkest and yet most inspiring chapters of twentieth century history. It is an epic for the ages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’attacco aereo su Auschwitz era richiesto dalle organizzazioni ebraiche più influenti e dagli stessi deportati, che lo invocarono più volte come estrema speranza nella fase culminante della Shoah, tra il maggio e il novembre del 1944. Ma dagli alti comandi alleati l’ordine – tecnicamente attuabile – non fu mai dato, e la macchina di sterminio nazista, lasciata indenne, poté aggiungere almeno centomila vittime al suo immane bottino. Dando voce a protagonisti come Elie Wiesel, sopravvissuto ad Auschwitz e premio Nobel per la pace, Henry Morgenthau iii, figlio del segretario al Tesoro dell’Amministrazione Roosevelt, Alfred Weber, ingegnere di volo della 15 Us Air Force, e David Wyman, tra i maggiori storici dell’Olocausto, oltre che a documenti e materiali d’archivio inediti, Bombardate Auschwitz ricostruisce la tremenda sfida politica, militare, burocratica che si giocò sulla testa di migliaia d’innocenti condannati a morte. Una sfida che coinvolse i vertici del governo statunitense.Già alla fine del 1942, il presidente Roosevelt, letto il primo rapporto sullo sterminio, dichiarò che l’America avrebbe fermato l’abominio, impegnandosi con queste parole: «I mulini degli dèi macinano lentamente, ma macinano straordinariamente fino». Nel 1944 le macine restarono ferme. Perché?Questo libro contiene molte domande e alcune risposte sul prolungato «silenzio degli Alleati», e sulle responsabilità morali di inglesi e americani, evocate da Elie Wiesel in una frase che esprime tutto il suo abbattimento: «Quando vedevamo i bombardieri passare sulle nostre teste speravamo, pregavamo che colpissero il campo. Ma non l’hanno fatto...».

Sample Book Insights: #1 For the first time in the history of Austria, the leadership of the state required an open commitment to the homeland. The country was divided on whether to remain independent from German tyranny or not. #2 The Karmelitermarkt was the main market in Vienna, and it was here that Tini Kleinmann bought her supplies for the week. The marketplace was full of stalls owned by Jewish traders. The pro-independence slogans were everywhere, painted on the pavements in big, bold letters. #3 The Austrian government’s campaign for the plebiscite was suspended due to the developing crisis. There were rumours that the Viennese police would side with local Nazis if it came to a confrontation. #4 The family was happy and peaceful in their home, until a written ultimatum came from Germany demanding that the plebiscite be canceled and that Chancellor Schuschnigg resign. The Austrian government had until 7:30 p. m. to comply.
