{"product_id":"books-the-holocaust-on-trial-by-dd-guttenplan","title":"The Holocaust On Trial","description":"David Irving is a leading Holocaust revisionist. In 1996, He sued Penguin Books for libel, claiming he had been falsely labelled a Holocaust denier. The trial was one of the strangest to take place in an English court: the judge had to give a verdict on history. At stake was the freedom of neo-fascist historians to exonerate Hitler and to deny that the Nazis set out to commit genocide, but this was also a trial about the present day, about what out society finds it politically and morally acceptable to say in public. It was also a libel trial about evidence: how do we know that the genocide happened? D. D. Guttenplan has followed David Irving's career for years and has studied the furious debates over the Holocaust. This is a dramatic recreation of a bizarre trial and a meditation on truth and memory.","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53673491005713,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781862074866.jpg?v=1781526065","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/books-the-holocaust-on-trial-by-dd-guttenplan","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
