The Holocaust: An Unfinished History by Dan Stone

tracithomas's review

challenging dark informative sad slow-paced

4.0

This is an extremely well researched and detailed history of the Holocaust. It is very dense. I enjoyed it but struggled a bit with the writing style, finding the prose clunky and repetitive in parts. I deeply appreciate the reframing of so much of the Holocaust and the horrors being clearly and plainly stated. I do recommend this book but not as an entry point to the Holocaust bc of how much this book challenges and complicates well held beliefs.

The book was very educational and enlightening, but I'm not in the right mood to finish it (and should understand history better before going into this one). I'll have to try again later.
